Bison B.C. holds nothing back when it comes to their music. Since 2008, this heavy metal band has released two full-length albums entitled Quiet Earth and Dark Ages. Even with losing their previous drummer earlier this year, the guys are still going full force.

On October 12, the lead singer of Bison B.C., James Farwell, took the time to talk to me over the phone for a quick interview.

You have been on tour for the past two months in Canada and in parts of the United States. What has that been like?
"It's been really good. We had most of the year off because we lost our drummer at the beginning of the year, so we weren't really doing much. But we got a new drummer and we started practicing with him, breaking him in, so this is like the first time we really hit the road. We were all really hungry for it and we have been having an absolute blast."

Can you explain what living in Vancouver has given you guys inspirationally and musically?
"Well, I guess there are a couple of things. As a musician, it's a pretty daunting city. There aren't a lot of places to play. I think that if you are really serious about your music, it kind of takes that much more to become involved with the scene there. I think the city is designed against musicians. It's no fun city, but we do our best. It's getting better, but I think it makes you a better musician because you are more passionate about it."

Is there a third album in the works?
"Yeah, we started doing a little bit of writing before we hit the road on this tour, so the plan is when we get back to Vancouver just in time for drearily depressing, unimpressive rainfall and then we write equally brutally depressing, angry music."

Bison B.C. were in London on October 21 at Call The Office. You can check out the band on MySpace at myspace.com/bisoneastvan and on Twitter at @bison_bc.
