What does REDcapricorn mean?
-First off, the color red is one of the most, if not the most intense of
colors. Red is said to at the sight of make one's blood pressure rise. Red
is one of the colors that can be the most intense fury or the most beautiful
passion. Red is the color of Cupid, red is the color of the Devil. Red is
the color of a rose,red is the color of blood. Red is a color that can
please most any one in a situation. Red can match up with whatever one may
feel. Red is love and war.
The second part of our band name, from the zodiac symbol Capricorn. People
who are Capricorn are said to attempt to bring about the perfect society, to
create heaven on earth or make practical, efficient connections with others
on the physical plane. Capricorn's are ambitious, feels pride in
accomplishments; concern with truth, reality, and "hard facts". This is what
our goal is as a band make music that everyone can relate to. Give a message
that everyone can connect with. Give people opportunity to relieve them for
sometime, to escape the problems of reality, if even for a brief second.

How do you guys like working with Code Blue Media?

very helpful program.

Where do you get most of your lyrics from?
-All of the lyric I (Kody) write. I make it my top priority to make all of
our lyrics have a real, heart felt meaning. I don’t write about random thing
and I don’t write songs that have no meaning. Every one of our songs is like
a story they have a beginning and a end, its just packed into about 3 or 4
minutes.

Do you have anything recorded?
-Yes, we have a 3 song demo out. We recorded it back in March of 07’. We
also have a new single on the way.

How long did it take for you guys to finish the recording?
-it took us 5 hours to record 3 songs, like I said we did it back in March
so it’s a little outdate and we did it a little prematurely, its ok for a
demo though.
Our man, Anthony Cardelli from New Bern NC at 2nd St. Studios did the songs
for us. He is amazing, he has talent and he totally knows what he’s doing.
He’s also a blast to hang out with!

What is the best thing about playing music?
-Sending people that message that’s in every song, and letting the people
connect with you. If you can get people to receive the message of your song
and let them feel it in there hearts that’s the best feeling I could ever
ask for.

Any funny stories about a fan?
-I have had several girls to try to talk me (Kody) into going to a hotel
with them, I had no idea even who these chicks were…its kind of a bizarre
situation to say no nicely.

Do you guy have any tours in the making?
-Keep an eye on us this summer, were going to blow the scene up!

What religion are you guys and how does it effect your music?
-We are all Christians, It doesn’t so much affect our music, but we all are
very proud of our religion. We have a habit before we play a show to pray
so.

What do you guys do for work right now, other than playing music?
-Were pretty much bums! We have to depend on our band for our income, which
that’s pretty much our lives so it works out for the best!

What were some of your favorite bands growing up and what bands have
influenced your band the most?
-Wow, its hard to pick a few, 30 Seconds To Mars, The Used, The Exies,
Nirvana, Shinedown, Vains of Jenna, Alice In Chains, Sex Pistols, MCR,
Bullet For My Valentine, Sound Garden, Metallica, 3 Days Grace, Breaking

dedicated to that band and that band only. That’s just us though.
