Stacey Taylor (Cry Murder)


1- Cry Murder has been a band going on 6 years now, yet your debut album "Above Us The Waves" only just came out on the weekend. How much hard work went into the record? and tell us some of the bs you had to go through over the years to get to where you now are.

It was really hard trying to stay focused, since every time we were getting where we wanted to go something would stuff us up. But all good thats what makes you stronger and more determined. Mainly it was just member changes that really took its toll, but at the end of the day it was all for the bet because now we are happier than ever with the out come and having way more fun.


2- Standard "girl" question for you, haha. What is it really like for a girl playing in a metal/hardcore band? Have you ever been treated disrespectfully by other bands members? and what do you think of girls that go to shows with their boobs hanging out and sit at the merch desk all night? haha

No never been disrespected by other band members but there are a couple of venues that dont believe im in the band and im trying to get in for free.. mainly it is the girls with their boobs out at the door that give me a bit of grief but thats cool im not there to impress anyone im just there to play music.... I dont have a problem with those type of girls each to their own i guess....


3- Your about to head out on your first headlining national tour.
Are you looking forward to it? and what do you get up to in your down time on tour?


Definitely looking forward to tour. It is so good doing what you want to do everyday and also playing all new songs is really refreshing. On our time off we just go the usual site seeing and chilling out. some of the boys like to party but im a nanna and stay home usually and sleep.


4- Adelaide has changed alot over the years since you first started going to shows there, how is it now and which would you prefer, the year 2000 Earth Crisis wanna be Adelaide or the 2004 Poison The Well wanna be Adelaide? haha. What band is it cool to like there now?

Now its very different, it is very split in the middle between hardcore and metal. back in the day we were lucky to see an overseas act. now we are spoilt and dont support aus music as much which is a shame. i dont know what i would prefer. even though i love earth crisis era ill have to say poison the well coz more bands were playing then like prom queen and DOC. It was
such a good time for adelaide and bands.


5- You looked beautiful walking down the aisle at Adrianne and myself's wedding, any chance we will see you on stage rocking that dress and high heels? haha

HA HA HA NO WAY!!!! i could only walk in those things for like 5 mins and i was gone!!!!
