What are your songs about? Avoiding sounding cliche, in life every body experiences letdowns and set backs sometimes, what keeps people moving forward is how a person chooses to deal with the issues. He or she can either accept the loss or move around the obstacle and take their fate into their hands. Every person is responsible for his or her own route and we are attempting to promote the idea that when you fall down, be ready to fight your way back up to success.
Having dealt with many of these experiences as a band already, we feel the topic hits us all more personally and is therefore more enjoyable to write about. It serves as a release in way. Plus the themes themselves are relatable by anyone with a beating heart.
What is your genre? We get asked this question all of the time. Instead of limiting ourselves to one magnified genre, we like to write what we think sounds good and what everyone in the band is vibing off of depending on our mood. Some songs are heavier than others, some are more passionate. If you want to throw it in a genre call it metalcore.
What are some of your band biggest influences? Musically, it would have to be As I Lay Dying, After the Burial, A Day to Remember, Slipknot, and Parkway Drive. Lyrically, the challenges we as a band face every day.
How long have you known each other? How did you guys meet and how did the band get started? Some have known each other for three years but 'Ataxia' as a whole formed one year ago. The lineup today was founded starting from Jordan and Brian who met at Walsh High School, and then bringing in Ricky from Revere High school. Devon was an older friend of Ricky's. We can confidently say that we are proud of how good our communication is with each other and that the pact we have formed would be close to impossible to break after the setbacks we have pushed through.
