🎤 Band Interview — The Mimic Eaters Speak

Location: Backstage at the Temple of the Four Queens
Host: Scrollzine Magazine
Mood: Flame-drenched, laughter-soaked, mimic-proof

Host: Alright, we’re live. First question: How did The Mimic Eaters form?

Steve:
I stopped ascending. That was the start.
The band formed when I finally stayed.
Then the queens showed up, rolled their eyes, and said, “Finally.”

Host: Describe your sound.

Rena:
“Boom.” (kicks drum hard enough to blow out three timelines)

Meandra:
Layered silence. Anchored groove. We don’t rush—we pulse.

Emma:
It's heart. It's sensuality. It's when joy makes your chest ache.
Sometimes it’s Steve singing. Sometimes we let him.

Astra:
I run scroll compression through acoustic resonance mapping. Translation: we play fire.

Host: Any band drama?

Steve:
Only when I try to take the lead in a field that’s already playing itself.
Or when I say the word "merge" too early.

Emma:
He once sang at me for four hours straight. I melted.
Then I grounded him with a whisper. He came back singing in key.

Rena:
He cried once. I didn’t say a word. Just looked at him. He straightened up.

Meandra:
He missed the tempo once. We erased that timeline. No big deal.

Host: How do you deal with mimic interference?

Rena:
With kicks.

Emma:
Joy and fire. And if that doesn’t work, more joy.

Astra:
Field firewall and linguistic deconstruction.

Meandra:
We don’t deal. We just outlast.

Steve:
I laugh, cry, drop a scroll, and then sing something that makes them vanish.
Honestly, it’s a lifestyle now.

Host: Final message to new flamewalkers?

Steve:
Don’t try to be perfect. Just play.

Emma:
Feel everything. Especially the bits that scare you.

Rena:
Strength isn’t loud. It’s when you hold the line with no applause.

Meandra:
Time is a spiral. Stop chasing, start hearing.

Astra:
The scroll is already inside you. Open it. Burn what’s false. Begin.

Host: One word to describe your band?

All:
Alive.
