Everything about the band, their music and much more, you can read below.... Have fun! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>At this point, thanks to Jordan from Krod Records and the guys from Prey Drive! Awesome, thanks a lot! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Here is the german version, you can find the original below.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LILA: <\/strong><strong>Prey Drive<\/strong> exists since 2016 and has just started its musical adventure. Can you tell our Immortals (readers) how you came together and why you are <strong>Prey Drive<\/strong> have founded?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHRISTIAN: <\/strong><strong>Prey Drive<\/strong> began when <strong>Steve<\/strong> had a lot of song ideas that he really wanted to try out. He and <strong>Brad<\/strong> were already together in a band before, just like <strong>Paul (meaningfully translated)<\/strong> and <strong>Christian<\/strong> and since the Norwich scene is very tightly knit, we knew each other.... <strong>Steve<\/strong> already wrote with <strong>Brad<\/strong> and came into contact with <strong>Christian<\/strong>, which <strong>Paul (meaningfully translated)<\/strong> brought and so was <strong>Prey Drive<\/strong> born<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LILA: <\/strong>Your band, <strong>Prey Drive<\/strong> has been on the independent record label <strong>Krod Records<\/strong> signed not too long ago. Congratulations! How did this incredible opportunity come about?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHRISTIAN: <\/strong>We have worked with <strong>Jordan<\/strong> from <strong>Krod<\/strong> when he expressed interest in our EP. <strong><i>\"Tabula Rasa\"<\/i><\/strong> has shown and we liked the label very much. <strong>Christian<\/strong> our drummer was recently in Berlin and they got together for a few drinks... The rest is history.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LILA: <\/strong>The one important day in the life of a musician: buying the first CD. For me, as a music freak, this was a very big day.... Unfortunately, my first CD was from <strong>Avril Lavigne<\/strong> \u2013 <strong><i>\"The Best Damn Thing\"<\/i><\/strong> and today I honestly don't know why. Tell me, what was the first CD you bought?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHRISTIAN: <\/strong>We have all had a weak point for <strong>Avril Lavigne<\/strong> at a certain point, I'm sure haha, but my first CD, the one that really got me into music, was <strong>The Offspring<\/strong> - <strong><i>\"Americana\"<\/i><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LILA: <\/strong>Two of four band members of <strong>Prey Drive<\/strong> were session musicians for <strong>Slaves<\/strong>. What have <strong>Brad<\/strong> and <strong>Steve<\/strong> before that? Did you play in other bands?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHRISTIAN: <\/strong>As I have said before. <strong>Steve<\/strong> and <strong>Brad<\/strong> played in several bands before, the last band they played together in <strong>Deers<\/strong> was really cool! <strong>Brad<\/strong> has really good solo material under the names <strong>Dirty Paint Brush Sky<\/strong> brought out.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LILA: <\/strong>Our magazine likes your music very much and is looking forward to seeing you live one day! What can someone who does not know your band at all on a <strong>Prey Drive<\/strong> Expect concert?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHRISTIAN: <\/strong>Good, loud, melodic noise!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LILA: <\/strong>You will get your EP <strong><i>\"Tabula Rasa\"<\/i><\/strong> at <strong>Krod Records<\/strong> and it was also announced that you will release an album together for the end of the year. Sounds like a full schedule! So tell me, how do you manage to make music, perform on stages and have time for the family under these circumstances?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHRISTIAN: <\/strong>I think because we have been doing it for some time it has become normal for us but I guess we just give it everything we have! We stay busy but also organized haha. Up to this point we are also complete <strong><i>\"do it yourself\"<\/i><\/strong>, so we set the tone!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LILA: <\/strong><strong>Prey Drive<\/strong> is new on the market. Tell me... where do you see <strong>Prey Drive<\/strong> in three years?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHRISTIAN: <\/strong>Hopefully... Still good, loud, melodic but especially with a lot of noise!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>LILA: <\/strong>Finally, do you want to say anything to your fans and to our Immortals?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>CHRISTIAN: <\/strong>Thanks for listening!
