CK:
Introduce the members in the band:

Age of Metalence:
Well, we got Jack Saucier on the drums, Daniel Saucier on the bass and Jason Stringfellow singing

CK:
So, tell me..what exactly, motivates you, the artist to write songs?

Age of Metalence:
Different things, sometimes I'll be laying in my bed at 2 in the morning and something will pop into my head... other times I'll be walking through a store, all depends

CK:
Can you name a few of you favorite places on the web for band promotions?

Age of Metalence:
Definatly PureVolume.com and Soundclick.com

CK:
What do you like most about being an INDE artist?

Age of Metalence:
It's alright, its all about learning for me.

CK:
Has the internet really been helpful to your promotion?

Age of Metalence:
Of course! We have people as far away as England wanting to hear more of us.

CK:
How many members in the band write music?

Age of Metalence:
Well, as far as lyrics go, its me, Jason and Jack. Everyone writes their own music though.

CK:
What is important to you about the music?

Age of Metalence:
To me, it has to be everything I expect and more, has to have feeling, and meaning. I can't sit back and enjoy a meaningless song.

CK:
Do you do any recording on your own?

Age of Metalence:
Well, we were thinking about it, but we decided it would be better if we had a pro do it for us.

CK:
How big of an impact do you think the underground, indie scene has on the current pop culture?

Age of Metalence:
Somewhat...

CK:
Most people will never know what it feels like to be on stage in front of a crowd, explain to them that feeling:

Age of Metalence:
I guess you could say it feels like you're spilling out your heart to your crush... and when you see the people really getting into it, it's kind of like she admits to having the same feelings. Its great.

CK:
If you could talk to anyone in the music business, who would it be?

Age of Metalence:
Probably Kirk Hammett or John Petrucci.

CK:
Who are your biggest influences?

Age of Metalence:
As far as the band goes... BLS, Metallica, and Dream Theater.

CK:
What are your plans for the future with your band?

Age of Metalence:
What else? Become the next Metallica.

CK:
What makes you and your band unique?

Age of Metalence:
We all like something different. Jack is really into older music(Jimi, Skynyrd, etc.), Daniel is into funk, Jason is a die-hard metalhead, and I like everything from Jazz to Classical and everything inbetween.

CK:
Describe your typical stage show performance. Give us a hint into what we might expect to see are your show.

Age of Metalence:
Well, its basically us jumping around. We're really energetic. We do also interact with the crowd, we'll have them sing along with what they know. Hell, maybe even invite someone onstage.

CK:
Tell us about your worst gig and why it was so bad.

Age of Metalence:
Our first, we played a bunch of Skynyrd covers at a small place in the middle of nowhere. Noone got into it, and we really sucked. I guess you could call it a learning expierence.

CK:
What is your favorite song on your current album?

Age of Metalence:
It would have to be Angels of Death or Innocence Faded. Definatly kick-ass songs.

CK:
How do you transport your equipment to the gig?

Age of Metalence:
Any way we can, Daniel has a truck, and I have a Surburban and a Jimmy at my disposal, so yeah, we get there.

CK:
Are there any established artists with whom you would like to collaborate?

Age of Metalence:
I wouldnt mind doing something with Dream Theater or Black Label.

CK:
Give us a run down of your audio equipment:

Age of Metalence:
