We are doing well! Just got done with Rapid Decay in Binghamton and are about to play Days of Darkness fest in Baltimore. We will be taking a short hiatus from playing live starting in November, but we will continue to write and prepare for some bigger tours in the summer of 2019. 

2.Tell us how is form this destructive band of fast grind called Bruised Ego? Hows been the begings?
Adam and I started Bruised Ego out of the ashes of Lotus Fucker as we were tired of being in bands with horrible people both on and offstage. We recruited my old friend Mike not long after and played our first show in october 2016.

4.Raw and furious influences?
Our influences range quite a bit member to member, but our core sound came from late 80s UK hardcore like Heresy and Ripcord and some American bands like Hellnation. Adam has more jazz and tech influences and it shows in his playing. Mike is pretty much crossover and classic rock. We are working on changing our direction slightly and have been listening to lots of Gasp, Gas Chamber and G-anx as well as Husker Du, Dinosaur JR and Melt Banana.

5.Some members from Bruised Ego have another proyect paralell?
Im in a Grindy/Post-metal band called Crawler and about to start drumming for Mind As Prison. Adam is currently resting from his other projects and doing session drum work to my knowledge and Mike has no other project

6.Brad explain some more about the actual fast grind scene from your city and recommend some bands.
There is not much of a fast scene here anymore. What remains is kind of spread between here and DC, which is very close. Older bands like Triac, DOC and Mind As Prison still remain, but newer bands like Tomb Warden, Neck Breather and No//Mas have been carrying the torch lately. Noisem is also still around, but their members are spread aroind the US now.

7.Bruised Ego knows the fast grind scene of Southamerica?
Adam and I toured Brazil awhile back. Ive always been a fan of Brazilian noisecore like Industrial Holocaust, Noise and New York Against The Belzubu. We also really like Test, CATTARRO and the like. I am sadly not as familiar with band elsewhere in South America.

8.Stuff avaliable of Bruised Ego at the moment? where the punxs can find the stuff?
We currently still have our LP and shirts and will soon have the latest 4way split. You can write me at ssrtapes@gmail.com and request these items. I do international shipping!

9.Morbid future plans?
More international touring and a new musical direction.

10.Last words Brad and thanks for your time in this interview. 
Support the REAL ONES and bury the ones who wish to take advantage of the scene and people. There is no room for leeches or violence towards women or anyone really.
