LOVEBITES interview for CRY OF THE WOLF MAGAZINE Answered by miho, bass guitar player 1) Take us through the writing process I always write riffs first and make a basic demo, then start adding arrangement to complete a song. 2) Does everyone contribute Our guitarlist mi-ya and myself, along with another songwriter outside of the band usually write music/melody. Each of us brings own music to the table and each band member arrange their own part to complete the music. As for the lyrics, asami and myself write all of our songs. But each band member is a great song-writer, we are going to play other member’s songs as well in the near future. 3) What are the rehearsals like. Do you have set jam times When we start rehearsing for a tour/show, we first decide how much time we want to/can put into each song and concentrate on bettering the performance one by one. And we play from top to the bottom of our set list for a several times. 4) What makes the perf...

Interview with Scott Ian Of Anthrax/I'm The Man book review I'm The Man The Story Of That Guy from Anthrax Scott Ian of Anthrax was high on my list of people to one day interview. So when the opportunity came to review his new Book, "I'm The Man", I jumped at the bonus chance to interview the man himself. Truly responsible for being a forerunner in the American Thrash Metal Movement, Scott and Anthrax are in the Pantheon of metal icons.
