==Christianity== The Color Morale have generally expressed that they are not a Christian band. In an interview, bassist Anthony Wick said this on the issue: "Most of us are Christians. I think the label 'Christian Band' is more related to marketing and sales than it does an actual belief in something. You see so much of this 'We're a Christian band, this and that' sort of thing, and you just don't know what people are like outside of that setting. You can be Christian as you want to be on stage, but off-stage, it's a whole different ball game with people. I think before you say anything like that, I think you need to live your life according to what you believe, or you're just a hypocrite and it doesn't matter what you say on stage. I wouldn't label us a Christian band, but we're guys that believe in Jesus, and that's our beliefs — but we like to talk about it in a different sense, different from the idea of 'Evangelical Christian Metalcore'."{{Citation needed|date=January 2014}}
In March 2013, vocalist Garret Rapp was interviewed in which he mentions the following: "I think I was in 2011 during ''Scream It Like You Mean It'' Tour. I think in the last year in my life I've really taken a step back. I can feel it when I talk...I'm in a grey area right now, I'm unsure of where I am and where I'm going, it's feel like I'm walking with quicksand beneath me half the time, it's a very unstable time of life right now. I'm just trying to do the best thing I can with what I've got given to me or I've came to do what I've tried to earn I guess...I'm just trying to do something positive for someone else, and that re-affirms a purpose in me for something right now."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=3074451|title=The Color Morale - 03.08.13|work=AbsolutePunk.net|access-date=19 September 2014}}</ref>
