In 1998 he met Mike Long at a bar and soon they were creating with Sauce, Hellnaw and Dame Dog. The first practice we had, it just clicked. It felt like wed been playing together forever, remembers I-Man. Mike Long, who’s been a multi-instrumentalist since early childhood, agrees, when we first met we just started writing songs straight-up for like 6 weeks! Capitol Eye has performed with Cypress Hill, Limp Bizkit, Kool Keith, KRS-One, Black Eyed Peas, The Vandals, Method Man, Long Beach Dub Allstars, Pennywise, 311 and TSOL. Mood Swingz was the first cd to hit the streets and was recorded with Eddie Ashworth (Sublime, Pennywise) who captured the bands intensity and energy flawlessly. The production is crisp, the layering is deep, and the delivery is tight. Songs like Lets Go are full of high-energy instrument mutilation, while the remake of Sly and the Family Stones If You Want Me to stay grooves just like it did in the 70s. On tracks like The Dice Roll and What My Eyes Have Seen, the reality of Capitol Eye is revealed. Raw raps, aggressive metal riffs, mellow jams, dance grooves and slow songs all do time on the album. In between songs, sound bytes are there to ease I-mans conscious lyrics along smoothly. I-Man relates stories from his past, the way he grew up, and what he sees around him now. Mood Swingz is a personal album, full of emotion and dedication. It will take you on a musical journey into the world of a band that’s having an immense impact on the scene today. Capitol Eye continues to prove themselves on stage, at parties, on the Internet, in your car, or anywhere their music is played. To be continued... (Coming soon)...the bio on the (New) Capitol Eye
