Interviews: UNCOMMON EVOLUTION


On this new occasion, we have had the opportunity to interview the Stoner Hard Rock band, UNCOMMON EVOLUTION from the USA. Check out the interview and follow the band on their FACEBOOK PAGE.

1. Where did you get the idea for the band name, you planned it or came out just like that?

We sat around the studio and wrote a few names on the board. Then we crossed out the words that we didn’t like, and we were left with, Uncommon Evolution.

2. Why did you want to play this genre?

Is there anything another kind? Haha na.. it’s just what comes out when we get together.

3. Did you know each other before the band was formed?

Not really, we knew of each other because it’s a small community and we played in separate projects. My project ended and so I put an ad on Craigslist. Matt, fresh out of a punk band, answered. Then Rick was ready to join a band again after some time away from music and then River jumped onboard when he was just a youngster. We’ve been in the same lineup for the last three of our five albums. 

4. Each band member's favorite band? 

Rick is into Rush and Yes. Matt likes Led Zeppelin, Slayer, and Megadeath. River was influenced by Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd, and High on Fire I (Briar) listened to a lot of Pantera, Corrosion of Conformity, some 90’s Grunge

5. Who or what inspires you to write songs? 

Sometimes life kicks you in the nuts and you gotta tell the story. Also, the area we live in can get crazy with forest fires and wild animals, and Mountains.

6. Where was your last gig?

It was a Tatertot festival at the Dark Horse bar in Missoula Montana. It was a hell of a good day, 16 bands, tater tot competition, Epic!!

7. Where would you like to act?

That’s a hard one, we’ve been very lucky and have played most of our dream stages. “Wet dream” show, Wacken open air festival in Europe.

8. Whom would you like to feature with? 

Man, soo many. I mean, I’d be stoked to be out there rolling with hundreds of bands but like dream gigs? Gwar, C.O.C., Clutch. That sort of deal.

9. Whom not? 

Oh shit. You’re trying to start a fight. Um.. Bon Jovi, haha.

10. Have any of you ever suffered from stage fright? Any tips for beginners on how to beat that? 

Definitely! I still have moments after many years of this. It’s a great rush trying to control it. Close your eyes and visualize that you are sitting in your practice space, where you are most comfortable, and play your heart out. Open your eyes after the song.

11. What bands have inspired you the most? 

Currently, so many. But originally, My mom got me hooked on Elvis before I could walk and I still have a soft spot for him.

12. What's the weirdest thing a fan has ever asked you for? 

We haven’t really had anything weird. Just the occasional picture or sign something, setlist.

13. What do you think of your fans? 

Their all our friends. We just want to have some fun with them, you know? Let’s just forget all the bullshit and get down and dirty.

14. What do you think of our site? 

It’s badass! I’m not the guy who knows a damn thing about website development but it has good info and it’s easy to Navigate.

15. Something to add?

We’re really looking forward to releasing this new album! Hopefully, we’ll find a way to share it with more friends. So, thank you very much for asking such great questions and help to get the word out.
