We are a South Eastern Wisconsin straight-forward old school Heavy Metal / Hard Rock band. We play original songs and the occasional cover song. Our style is based on our love for 80s metal and rock and yet we still pull in a contemporary feel. We pride ourselves in having diversity among our songs. Some are fast and aggressive with multiple guitars... others are slow with acoustic guitars or keys and vocals. We also have a good share of keyboard and guitar songs. We strive to be melodic and memorable and write what we feel are good songs. As always, good is in the eye (or ears) of the beholder... so, give us a listen....
Why this name?
Hey... lets face it, there arent many good names available. We found this one that was (according to MP3.com at the time). Plus, its got a strong positive meaning (if you ignore its usage for sports).
Do you play live?
We have only played live on a few occasions and are looking to do more in the right situations. We practice/play privately at least twice a month.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Given the right situation
