There’s a group out right now, I don’t know how long they’ve been out, but I’ve been listening to their music as of late. It’s 3Oh!3. They are hilarious. When I first heard them, maybe three months ago, I wasn’t all that into it but I started listening to them again yesterday and oh man, some of their songs blew my mind. These are two VERY talented guys that rap (mainly). They’re both white and nerdy (ha). Any how, they do a could songs that you may know (or not know) their biggest song is STARSTRUKK with Katy Perry and their other song Don’t Trust Me is another one of the big ones. If you give them a listen on youtube, I think you’ll be pleased.

I’m sure that some of you have heard of the group Hollywood Undead but there may have been quite a bit of you who have not. This group is amazing. They wear masks but take them off frequently during shows. They’re R&R but I would say more rap than rock. I’ve fallen in love with this group; not only their music but the musicians themselves. They’re all pretty attractive guys and they all have different personalities. The group is as follows: J3T, Tha Producer, Charlie Scene, J Dog, Funny Man and Da Kurlzz. These guys are amazing and I’m not a big fan of rap at all. They’re all MCs and I believe that some of them play instruments. Also there’s not a group leader unless you want to call Charlie Scene the group leader, which I wouldn’t. HU is from Los Angeles and they sing about their city in almost all their songs. I believe I’m going to be going to the show in Allentown coming up this month (April) and I hope to enjoy it. Along with HU I’ll also be attending quite a few other concerts/shows such as: NIN w/Jane’s Addiction, Dane Cook, Fall Out Boy w/numerous other bands and Dave Matthews Band. I believe there’s one more but I can’t quite remember who it is at this time. If you are one of the few who have yet to hear Hollywood Undead (HU) then please check out their website and check them out at www.hollywoodundead.com and enjoy!!

Don’t know who RENFUE is? Well they’re a band out of a small city called Santa Clarita Valley. They have a great style. Check them out here
The bands name, RENFUE, where did it come from?
Renfue was just something that popped in my head one day. It actually started out with a slightly different spelling- “Renfew,” (which is the proper pronunciation) but after some collaboration with the band we went with Renfue. I guess it turns out its a surname though.
How long has the band been together?
The skeleton of the band began taking shape in September 2006, although it wouldn’t be until a year from then that things got serious Renfue did begin in 06′. Early development of the band was a lot of pre-production instrumental tracks recorded in Robs bedroom, burned on a disc and then given to Yvonne who at the time lived in Sacramento.
How would you guys describe your music?
I think our music is something a lot of people can connect with. There is a good balance, its mature in its immaturity i guess you could say.
Name some of your biggest influences.
Its hard to say each member has such different influences that they derive inspiration from.
If you could join any record label which would it be and why?
Thats hard to say. Its mainly what is the best offer that suites us the most. In our personal lives and touring, recording, merch and what not. Be it be indie or major.
What’s your favorite song to perform?
I think we would agree that “I’ve said too much” is a fun one, its a bit heavy so its always a pleasure.
Do you have any EP’s, singles or albums out? If so where can people buy them from?
We have a 4 track self titled EP out, easiest way to get it is on iTunes.
It seems that you’re a pretty popular band and you guys are based out of a small city. Do you have a lot of loyal fans?
Well i wouldn’t say popular! Haha I wish we were at that level. But yes we are from a smaller city called Santa Clarita in Southern California. Its an awesome town with a great music scene thats still on the under ground. And we do have very loyal fans that are always there to back us up and support us. Not to mention we have tons of loyal fans all over the world that support us. Our fan page is run by a girl in Australia.
I know you guys have recently had a fan site put up by a fan. Are you flattered? Are there a lot of people on the fan site?
Yes we are absolutely grateful for that and her names Lisha and shes been so awesome to us! We also have other sites run by fans on websites like Live Journal, Facebook, Myspace etc.. Its so new and awesome to us we will appreciate it for ever!
What band(s) would you most like to tour with?
There is so many we can list its hard to say, but a few we would love to tour with would probably be Thrice, Lydia, Brand new, Vedera, etc…any of those would be amazing.
If you could meet any artist(s) who would it/they be?
Well that also is another question mixed between all of our members. Thrice is a huge influence to all of us so that would definitely be one.
How many songs have you guys written? On average, how many songs do you perform at a show?
We have written about 15 some odd songs. Some are still just ideas, some are on the back burner at the moment. We are looking forward to getting some time to complete them. On average we play about 6 songs live. It all depends on our time slot, set up time and other random stuff that happens before we start.
What band do you like playing with most?
Well we always love playing with our good friends Set To Stun. They have been close friends of ours for a while now, Great guys. And we love and respect all kinds of music, So we love playing with ever band we get a chance too
