INTERVIEW - Chomp Chomp Attack!


Alright, now we have questions for the amazing Chomp Chomp Attack! We haven’t had a Canadian band on our site yet, so lets make this amazing! 


 


Hey guys, can we get your names, age and what you do in the band? 


So; there’s Mike Silentts, just turned 21 who is the lead vocalist of the band. Gabe Gallows who’s 20 years old, guitarist and backup vocalist. Omer Valentine our lead guitarist and backing vocals. Then there’s Dustin Heroin, youngest of the band at 19 years old, bassist and backup vocalist. Lastly, there’s Julien Masterpiece, 22 years old and plays drums for Chomp Chomp Attack! 


For all the kids who have never heard of you, how would you describe your style and music in 4 words? 


Meaningful, Edgy, Emotional, but still fun. 




How did this band come together? 


The band started just a year ago now, when Gabe and Omer decided they wanted a side project from their original band Buried By Tomorrow. They got together and spoke about ideas of a music genre for a while until they started talking to their newly acquired friend Mike from the band A Hopeless Lie. We ended up talking and deciding on a style and that since we loved playing shows together we’d very much enjoy actually playing all in one band as opposed to both our other bands playing a show together. We brought in Dustin from A Hopeless Lie as well, and went through various drummers before we finally landed on Julien, who has been the perfect fit so far. Since then everything’s just been going really smooth and we couldn’t be happier with the members and the music.




What’s the weirdest thing a fan has ever done? 


The weirdest thing so far would probably have to be the fan who asked Mike if she could have a french fry, he gave her the bag of fries, and she finished them and later on asked him to sign the greasy french fry bag.  We thought that was pretty odd, but we just laughed it off and gladly signed it! 


 


The funniest thing a fan has ever said to you? 


Funniest thing would probably be what they didn’t say. A fan once approached us for an autograph and kind of just stared at us for about 3 minutes holding a marker. We eventually got the hint, signed his t-shirt, and he awkwardly hugged us all, not saying a word the entire time. He was really tall and awkward, but hopefully we’ll see him again and get to know him this time, he’s probably a great kid! 


 


If you had the chance to tour around the world with a band, who would it be and where would you go? 


There are so many bands we’d love to tour with, it’s so hard to choose just one. A few that we’d like to tour with would be Get Scared, Black Veil Brides, Modern Day Escape, Escape The Fate, Avenged Sevenfold, Falling In Reverse, Vampires Everywhere, and lots more. As for where we would go, hopefully world tour. Few cool spots to play would be Fiji, Hawaii, Pennsylvania, California, Las Vegas, and more! But, I’m hoping for one of the more tropical ones mentioned!


 


What’s your biggest pet peeve when you’re performing on stage?


Well, it’s happened where little things go wrong but that’s never a big deal, I guess the worst would be when for example, Gabe tripped on one of the bands stage boxes which wasn’t properly set up and built, fell on his guitar and snapped all the strings. Luckily we always have extra equipment. But major things like that are definitely the worst. 


 


If you were a hobo, what would your cardboard sign say?


Something we once saw in our hometown: “Need money for chainsaw and/or shotgun. The Zombies are coming” 


 


What are your aspirations for the band?


Our main goal is to just tour as many places as possible for as long as possible. We wanna meet every single fan we have ever made and play in front of as many different people as possible and get a chance to hang out with everyone and see new places at the same time. 


 


Last but not least, we know that you guys have an album coming out, promote yourself


We’ve been facing some difficulties with our producer lately, which has put a halt on the album’s release date. But we’re hoping for it to come out this fall! The name is not announced yet. We’re doing our best to make sure we don’t disappoint anyone at all, because without them we’d be meaningless.
