With the release of their third full length album, 'Initiation, which is also the band's first major release since signing with Napalm, the band are on a serious crash course for utter domination within their genre.

In the interview, Skye and Matt talk all things SUMO CYCO including recording with producer Kane Churko in Las Vegas, the continuing stigma about "women in metal", their love of being on the road and the possible attempt to release more music videos than the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
