Things are about to get plenty real. It’s been my pleasure to take some time to ask “Knife” Sotelo some questions and find out about his life in Nu-Metal and what sets him apart from the rest. We cover the map from personal philosophies to music and perhaps for the first time in my life…I’m […]Read More

Eyes Like Oceans Interview

Gotta say it was an extreme pleasure to talk to Kristoffer Szczerbicki of Eyes Like Oceans.  In a somewhat rare occurrence here on our pages I found out doing my research and briefly chatting with KS that he was formerly in the band Amy’s Ashes – a band I not only knew of but still […]Read More
