Tell us all about how your band came to be and what roles you all have?

 

Louis: Reanimate was created off of the back of several different bands we were all in separately that didn't end up working out. We tried to carry on one in particular after 3 other members left, however we decided to rebrand and reform as Reanimate for a fresh start and we've never felt more comfortable and prosperous in a line-up before. We all have impactful roles within the band, with each member dealing with a different aspect such as live shows, writing, merch design, promotion and social media, as we feel sharing the workload is what makes a successful unit.

 

Where did your name initially come from?

 

Louis: The name was decided upon after various suggestions came up over months of deciding what we wanted our brand to be. However, like a phoenix from the ashes we decided to 'Reanimate' our careers as musicians and hence, the name was born.

 

Who would you say have been your main inspirations and influences and why either individually or as a band unit?

 

Louis: Each member has different music tastes, from Country to Drum and Bass, Punk to Rap, and we feel this plays a big part in our writing as we can come at it from different angles. We're heavily influenced by the Moden Metal scene with bands such as Polaris, A Day To Remember, Wage War. Bring Me The Horizon, Alpha Wolf, Currents etc, and we feel this is reflected in our music.
