Below are their group responses to my questions:
here are the questions:

1. What inspired you guys to play music?

Well everyone in the band has been playing music since we were little kids. For me personally (Mike Silentts), music has always been a calling of mine and I have been involved in bands; recording and writing music since forever. Playing music is also an amazing way to express your feelings and emotions through a song rather than just through speech, which for me makes it so much more meaningful.

2. How has music changed your life?

Music has changed our life to the point that I dont even think we would be living if it was not for music. The world with out music to us would be like a world without water. Everyone would just thirst up and eventually die. Music has helped us make some of the biggest decisions in our life and made us grow into the people we are today.

3. What bands do you guys listen to and how have they shaped your music?

The band has a very big variety of music that we all listen to. As for everyone, I think we all have our own inspirations. Some of our most listened to bands include: Asking Alexandria, Get Scared, Falling In Reverse, Escape The Fate and so on. We believe that our music is original and does not sound like just one of those bands, but more a mix of all our inspirations put together.

4. What advice do you guys have for others that want to pursue in music as their career?

It is hard, I am not gonna lie. There are hundreds and thousands of other bands out there that are trying to get to the exact same place you are trying to get to. That is what our new single: "From Dreams To Reality" is all about and if you truly believe in yourself, then you will never let yourself down. You will fall and you will make mistakes, it is bound to happen, but if you get up and continue to never let anything keep you down, then your already on the right track to making your dreams a reality.

5. Where did you guys get the idea for the name of your band?

The name of the band was actually thought up by Mike's older brother. We were brainstorming all night for a good name to match an emo band and while doing this we were playing Mario Kart 64 which then gave my brother the idea of Chomp, Chomp, Attack! at first we laughed, but wrote it down anyways. Then when it came time to choose a name we decided that even though we did not want a generic emo band name. Not that it has not worked out great for other bands, but we wanted to rather have something fun and catchy because in the end we are just a bunch of happy guys playing music that we love.
6. What do you guys want your fans to know about you that they might not know already?

I think it very important for our fans to know and understand that we actually love every single fan that we have. More than the music or anything that come out of being a band. The fans make us the happiest at the end of every single day and we try to give each and everyone as much attention as we possibly can because without them we would not be here or anywhere for that matter. Our fans will always be number one to us.

7. What do you guys think about when you are on stage?

The stage to the whole band is our home. It is the one place that we want to be all the time. Before we go on stage were filled with happiness and a feeling that nothing else in the world can give to us. We always remember the reason why were there and walking out to see our fans is like meeting our best friends and family for the first time. It is an amazing feeling.

Chomp Chomp Attack carries out their name very well because they want to chomp their way to your hearts and attack you guys with all the love they have for their music <3 They love the fans and to them they see you guys as family. When they walk on the stage they feel like they are home :)
