Name Origin:
Nick Hipa explained:
"The name is just something that we collectively settled on based on the idea that at our core, we're all the same. As human beings, there's a common thread that runs through us, and we have the spectrum of love and hate and everything in between; we're born exactly the same but as we age and go through life, certain parts of our character are cultivated, whether it's a belief system or whether it's a religious belief or a political belief, or prejudices or anything."

"Those are influenced by the people who are raising you or the environment you're reared in. You see so much bigotry, hatred violence and war, but they're all fabricated – they're not necessary, but they're just created. I think people lose sight of the fact that the human heart is the same in all of us and that's where the name comes from."

"We chose 'Wovenwar' instead of 'Wovenhearts' or something like that because we had to go with the heavier-sounding one and that might sound superficial, but the idea is there. If you recognize that those things are all created, then you can choose to live a life in opposition to that."
