Personal View

“We all grew up loving rock music and we still do, so it will always have this influence. But we also wanted to do something different. We wanted to somehow create our own style of rock and that was the point we started playing with more electronic elements. But it’s all about the percentage you put between the two. We are trying to find balance at the moment,” declared Joe in an interview with Real Tidal in 2016.
