Q1 For the record, who's answering the interview?
Adam Myers, current guitarist and ex-drummer for the band.
Q2 What is your band's name? How did you come up with that name?
Chambers of Insanity. Back in '99, when we were kids, the name was decided by looking at several posters. One poster being a picture of Jonathan Davis, with the caption "...on the brink of insanity" and the other poster being Coal Chamber; Chambers of Insanity
Q3 So who's in the band and what instruments do you each play?
Luke Cowan - vocals
Adam Myers - guitars
Steve Cigula - bass
David Slattery - drums
Q4 How would you describe your sound. What makes you unique?
We're a mix between thrash, doom and groove. We've been told by many people that we don't sound like any other band. Our fans dubbed our style "Chambers Chunk".
Q5 What bands have influenced each of you?
This is almost impossible to answer as we're all very eclectic. We draw influences from almost every genre of music out there. One thing is for certain, we all love Metallica and Pantera. But who doesn't?
Q6 How experienced are you on the stage, a virgin or whore?
Definately not virgin. It depends on the amount of alcohol we consume beforehand! If we're drunk, we're super slutty whores on stage. It can also depend on each member's mood and how the audience is reacting.
Q7 How would you describe your shows?
Loud. We always crack our shit up to 11. The drummer flogs his drums and the singer screams like Satan. We involve the crowd as much as possible, and love to make them laugh in between songs. I have a wireless system, so I'm always running and dancing around like an idiot.
Q8 Tell us about your favorite show and why?
In 2012, one of our smaller shows at the Hamilton Station Hotel in Newcastle. We packed the small room out, all the bands were drunk, the punters were drunk... it was just one awesome night.
Q9 Tell us about your worst show and why?
In 2006 back when I was on drums, an Australian open air festival called Metalstock. Shit sound and shit crowd. My double kick pedal kept breaking, the guitarist kept going out of tune... and just general shitness. Good weekend regardless though.
Q10 Tell Us About Your Dream Show, who you'd like to play with and where?
I'd love to go on tour with Down in the US and Canada. I'm sure the other boys would agree.
Q11 Do you have a street team and how can you join?
Buy a shirt and walk the street! Join us on Facebook and YouTube, tell your friends... it all helps.
Q12 Do you have a record label and if not are you looking for one?
Currently unsigned. We're not actively looking, but if something comes along with good terms, we'll take it.
Q13 What are your plans for the future, in a year, 5 years?
In the next year, we'll be looking to release our second full-length album. In 5 years, hopefully rolling around in dollars and touring the world haha.
Q14 Finally, do have any words on what Arm The Pit means to you?
I think it's awesome. Helping unknown bands become more known. We need more people like you in the industry and we thank you.
