How did you guys come up with the name?
WELL I WASN'T IN THE BAND WHEN THE CAME UP WITH THE NAME SO I DON'T REALLY KNOW THE STORY BEHIND IT.ALL I KNOW IS IT MEANS THEIR WILL BE NO INNOCENT VICTIMS IN HELL.
How did you meet?
WE MEET JUST BY HANGING OUT.MY BEST FRIEND KYLE GOT IN THE BAND SO I STARTED HANGING OUT WITH THE GUYS MORE OFTEN.THAN WHEN THEY NEEDED A GUITAR PLAYER THEY CALLED ME UP.
Is everyone in the band from San Diego?
JASON MOODY AND JASON DUN ARE FROM SAN DIEGO AND ME AND KYLE ARE FROM REDLANDS ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF NORTH.
Can you describe the first album?
THE FIRST NIV ALBUM WAS PRETTY MUCH A DEMO.
How is the second album different?
I THINK ALL THE SONG WRITING MATURED A LOT BETWEEN THE 2 ALBUMS.I THINK BOTH ALBUMS ARE GOOD.THE STYLE HAS CHANGED A LITTLE BIT BUT AT IT'S CORE IT'S ALL THE SAME STYLE.
Tell us about "Tipping the Scales," how is it different from the last two albums?
WELL TIPPING THE SCALES IS A LOT HEAVIER AND JUST MORE IN YOUR FACE.WE JUST WANTED TO WRITE AN ALBUM THAT ANY FAN OF HARD MUSIC WOULD LIKE INSTED OF JUST DOING TYPICAL HARDCORE THINGS.WE ARE ALL VERY PROUD OF IT.
Who have you toured with?
WE HAVE TOURED WITH AGNOSTIC FRONT,HATEDBREED,XDISCIPLEX AD,THE US BOMBS,ONE KING DOWN JUST TO NAME A FEW.
What is your Favorite place to play?
I THINK THE BEST SHOW I EVER PLAYED WAS IN WEST PALM BEACH, FLORIDA AT THIS PLACE SPANKY'S IT WAS ONE THE HATEBREED TOUR. THEIR BUS BROKE DOWN AND WE HEADLINED THE SHOW. IT WAS US, ONE KING DOWN AND WHERE FEAR AND WEAPONS MEET. THEIR WAS LIKE 700-800KIDS AND IT WENT NUTS. EVERYBODY IN THE WHOLE PLACE WENT ABSOLUTLY CRAZY.
Is there a favorite band you have played with?
THE BEST BAND TO PLAY WITH IS HATEBREED. WELL,PLAYING RIGHT BEFORE THEM. THEY ARE ALL GOOD GUYS AND IT'S JUST A FUN TIME.

Tim, you MADE tipping the scales :) and you all gave me the sweetest memory. Kyle, Tim, Jason, and Jason :). you gave me the best weekend of my life. I loved having lobster on the grill cooked by jamey jasta and his friends, i loved going bowling, i loved being on stage at your last us show. Backstage at ozzfest was a dream, and selling our passes for a steak and beer was hilarious. i loved the plane flight, i loved kyles birthday. you made a michigan's girls dream! i love your knuckle tattooes! i love this memory.
