Ok whoever you are plz don't start. You haven't even seen us live or heard. I don't play in a tribute band, first of all because I hate playing covers, I hate all-female bands and guess what, I'm more doom that a lot of people in this country because I'm Spanish, I lived in Europe (in Spain), Mexico City (where lots of European bands get first), and now in LA (cus my dad is American too) and I've been listening to this kind of music since I was like 11.
I've been asked to join tons of bands (including the Iron Maidens and Mistress of Reality), even be on MTV and sell out, but I haven't done that becuase of integrity. I also won the "best female drummer of the year award" in LA, and one of our latest albums songs "Mr. Cannibal" is nominated for the LA music awards for "Best Heavy Metal single fo the year".
Now, I don't play games, I'm a very friendly person and I love what I do and people like it, so what can I do? Ok, my music doesn't sound like Anathema's Serenades (which I love) or Sleep's (Dopesmoker) or Turn Loose the Swans (My Dying Bride), but it doesn't mean that those are not our influences and their music inspires us.
Plz don't fall for people that only want to get the attention (although press good or bad is always good I guess!).
You have a good one. Doom on!
