The band formed in late '95. We had been playing in other band previously but nothing was working out. We've been together for over a year
2. How would you describe your music?
Dark, intense death metal with a black metal influence
3. What are your biggest influences?
No certain band really. I hear music in my head and everyday, if I can sit down with my guitar and change that music into actual riffs then I'll have a part of a song or several parts of a song
4. Who if any do you consider the bands idols?
ourselves
5. What made you want to be in the band? And if you weren’t in the band what would you be doing now?
There's a lot of reasons but mainly to make music and spread it around the whole world for the true followers of our scene. If I wasnt in this band or any band I'd blow my fucking head off
6. What are some of your favorite bands that are really popular today?
none. I hate pop music
7. How many demos/albums do you have? Tell me about them!!
We have one demo available but we're currently recording our first album and we have enough material for two more recordings
8. What does the future hold for the band?
Endless possibilities
9. If you could play with any band who would it be and why?
Dissection. We met them when they played in LA with Sadistic Intent in March '96 and they had the right attitude no egotistical crap, but yet a good understanding of what the scene is all about
10. Who writes the majority of the music?
myself
11. Who has been the favorite band you’ve played with and why?
Sadistic Intent I’ve always enjoyed their music and lately we've been good friends
12. Where did you get the band name from?
Draconis means "the cult of the dragon" we got that part from the necromicon but Draconis is also a constellation. Supposedly when you can see a comet during the sign of Draconis there is great danger for the earth. During March '96 there was comet visible during Draconis and this is exactly when we thought of our band name this is coincidental because we already had a song about annihilation the human race called "Black Horde of Blasphemy"
13. Describe what the band is like live?
We possess the crowd. We are very energetic. No standing around. We are dress in all black, sometimes with no shirts. We have gauntlets, spikes, nails through our straps and inverted crosses around our necks. We make it clear to the crowd that the destruction of Christianity is what we stand for
14. If you are gonna do any kind of video what would be in it?
Basically a live concert video
15. Are there any touring plans made; if so tell me about them?
No touring plans yet. But anything is possible
16. Where do you think the band will be 20 years from now?
Ruling the earth or dead
*Draconis is still together making sure they are gonna RULE the earth LOL*
