How would you describe your sound. What makes you unique?
CYANIDE
Sleazy and old school in the vein of Mötley Crüe, Kiss, Van Halen, Def Leppard, RATT, stuff like that. There's not a whole lot of new bands coming out proudly flying the flag for this sound.
 
ATP
What bands have influenced each of you?
CYANIDE
The bands above. Iron Maiden, Queensr˙che, Judas Priest, Kix, Cinderella, classic heavy metal bands from the glory days.
 
ATP
How experienced are you on the stage, a virgin or whore?
CYANIDE
Whore all the way.
 
ATP
How would you describe your shows?
CYANIDE
Full of sleaze, sex, booze and attitude. It's full on party like it's 1987 mode. We play our full length debut album Lethal Dose. A few choice Crüe, Kiss Queensr˙che, Maiden covers.
 
ATP
Tell us about your favorite show and why?
CYANIDE
Our CD release party January 31st at Count's Vamp'd was phenomenal. The venue was packed. The band was on fire. The crowd was full of energy. It was a magical night.
 
ATP
Tell us about your worst show and why?
CYANIDE
When we first started in 2013 we had a few shows where there were some drummer issues and a few embarrassing moments. People too drunk to play the correct song. Those issues have since been rectified.
 
ATP
Tell Us About Your Dream Show, who you'd like to play with and where?
CYANIDE
That's easy. Opening for Mötley Crüe on the farewell tour and then carrying the torch for them when they stop touring.
 
ATP
Do you have a street team and how can you join?
CYANIDE
We do not have a street team but we would love to get one going. You can go to our website at www.cyanideband.com and check us out. Send an email to cyanide@embarqmail.com if you're interested in spreading the word.
 
ATP
Do you have a record label and if not are you looking for one?
CYANIDE
We did everything ourselves as far as releasing this album. We're not necessarily looking for one. It would have to be the right situation.
 
ATP
What are your plans for the future, in a year, 5 years?
CYANIDE
In a year...prepping the 2nd album. In 5 years hopefully playing music without having to work a day job. A Cyanide stadium tour with Tuff!
 
ATP
Finally, do have any words on what Arm The Pit means to you?
CYANIDE
It means a lot. Your support and love of Metal is not to be taken lightly. We humbly thank you and Jenn Mitchell from Rockgasms for helping to spread the word and music of Cyanide.
