SexTapes in WeRock Magazine Japan

Monday, March 16th, 2009

here’s an interview I did with the Legendary Pink RockX for a great Music magazine in Japan. This is some of the interview translated.
Q1: Why did you decide to use the song ”Medicine Man” to be on our “OMNIBUS CD, that is included with the magazine ?
We are to use ‘Medicine Man’ as our kind of first single, and we feel this is the best song to introduce our band to the world for its simple but powerful guitar riff, and a very strong vocal chorus. Its a lot of fun to play Live as well. When the song starts you just want to crank up the volume, man
Q2: What is the meaning behind this song?
could you tell us obviously?

‘Medicine Man’ is the term used for a Healer/Shaman, and people generally seek them to help
resolve issues they have, and the most common issue i see is when a boy/girl relationship
goes bad, and that is the case here with this song. I think many people can relate to this.

Q4: We’re curious about the equipment that was used in your recording of this song. could you tell us the main equipment?

We have a pretty simple setup for a Hard Rock Band. We use Marshall Amps, SVT Bass Rig, Thrust Drums, guitar synth, and a psychotic vocalist. When we record, we are all in the same room recording together to get a band vibe, and that shines through all the way to the record. I always stress that Band Chemistry is the most important element in Rock music, and I think its more attractive to the listener, even though they might not know that is how it was recorded

Q6: What kind of listener do you want to hear your music?

Anyone who digs Rock Music should listen to this, it is unique in its style and its not quite like
anything else you’ve heard. It mixes the influence of older L.A. punk with Modern Rock,
and the Lyrics are very visual and imaginative. So the listener is open to translate the songs in
their own personal way.

Q7:If there are any Sex Tapes projects that you have planned for the future.
Is it possible for us to hear about it?
Yes, we are trying to complete some visual work, like videos etc, and we are playing Live shows in
Hollywood, and also we have written some new songs to be recorded, which I hope
we can complete soon. I like the old style of when bands would put out a record at least once or twice
a year. It keeps a momentum going and is good for band chemistry and for the fans.

Q8:Would like to leave a message for your Japanese fans?

We absolutely Love Japan and the fans there. The people there are so considerate for one another and know how to interact with others to make a better society, … the entire World could really learn from the values that you’ve established there.

THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!!!
LOVE AND LIGHT,
