I think you are much hotter in shorter hair. You shall now relinquish your locks that I may resume touching my rotting manhood when I look at pictures of you in earlier band promos

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: I don’t think so bub, my hair will remain long.

You Dare?! For such a young mortal, you certainly are full of spunk! How long has Sanctity been together anyway?

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: We have been together for almost ten years. We really didn’t start getting serious about it until a few years ago. it was more of a weekend show thing. But around 2003 we started playing out a lot and getting a fan base. We all really wanted to make it, so we started playing constantly. We still don’t have lives (laughs)

How has the band evolved over the years to reach it’s current state?

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: Well musically, we’ve changed a lot. We were kind of Swedish sounding for a long time until we developed the sound we have now. ( There’s a lot ) more singing now than before, but we are all very happy about it. Member-wise, we have been through quite a few bass players. Brian Stephenson is filling in for Derek right now, and he is great.

What one event happened that was the most instrumental in getting the band signed and living your current life?

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: We played a show with Fear Factory and some people we met there helped get our demo to Roadrunner. We did a few demos for them with a producer (Jason Suecof) and then Monte finally signed us.

For being such a young band, you have been on some great tours/packages.

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: Well, I would like to think it was based off talent and the fact that people actually like our band, but while luck is definitely a factor, we have a very strong management team and are very happy with our booking agent.

That seems to be the key, isn’t it?

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: Totally

I remember going to see Comeback Kid when they opened for Rise Against. They weren’t even allowed to go upstairs where that band and Sum 41’s dressing room was. I noticed on your tour with Machine Head and Arch Enemy, they seemed to take over the dressing rooms as well. They also seemed to remain on their tour busses whenever possibly. My question is, do you ever get to hang out or get to know the headliners of a particular tour? Or is there a separation or tribal nature to the bands on a bill?

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: Actually, we hang with all the bands we tour with. It’s kinda the only good part of the day other than playing. I mean meeting new people and building new friends is always cool I guess. We got a long great with Machine Head and Arch Enemy. Jared was playing on stage and doing background vocals with both of them. Throwdown were cool as well.

Speaking of Jared, he has infamously, large testicles. I’m curious if such large orbs results in equally large ejaculations?

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: Well I’m quite sure I’ve never seen him cum, but if I do, I’ll let you know and send you some samples

Most acceptable!…Do you think he is a gusher or a spurter?

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: I would say (he’s a)spurter. He spits a lot so I can only assume

Have you ever jerked off and tasted your own semen when it accidentally flew into your mouth?

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: Jesus no, but I am sure you have.

Actually, I would love it if your semen accidentally flew into your mouth. Come to think of it, we can arrange things so that it doesn’t necessarily have to be an accident either

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: That’s just gross

Tell me something about the music industry that you don’t like, that has come as a surprise to you.

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: The only bad thing is that sometimes things don’t really happen when you want them to, or things don’t work out. I’m not going to give specifics, but everyone goes through it really. It’s kind of part of doing this whole thing, it’s important to have strong management.

Well that was just about the most pussy-ass, politically correct answer I’ve ever heard in my death! Well let me ask it this way, since a band like Sanctity won’t make their mark by having radio songs or hit singles, and thus selling millions, thus not get their asses kissed by label bigwigs, how do you think you can stand the test of time and not only survive, but thrive?

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: We will make radio hits! (laughs) Who knows really? I’d like to say we will conquer the world, but we might not.

You won’t. Only my band will

(Laughs)

Since Sanctity writes a form of Metal that has roots in the past, how do you pay homage to your heroes, but still sound fresh and current?

Yummy Drummy Jeremy: Well it’s not about going into it thinking you need to write a song like this or like that, just write what you want and don’t listen to any naysayers. I mean, a band like Slayer have survived because they’ve remained true to themselves. I would like to think as long as we’re true to ourselves and our fans, we’ll be around. The fans we do have are fucking great. Some of them are fanatical. We love them all. They are out there creating Sanctity awareness (laughs) so we appreciate everything they do really.
