13 Dead End Drive is the collaborative effort between Adam Gotch and Adam Glass, resulting in a cacophony of punk, blackmetal, indie rock, thrash, and hardcore.
The band's songs combine powerful, melodic vocals with crushing, layered guitars and blistering beats that take you on a ride from the black metal underground, through carefully anthemic post-hardcore, to the most fragile moments of human introspection - making you wonder how you got there, but never leaving you feeling lost in between.

Why this name?
It was really the first one we thought of that we kept coming back to. We liked the "oh man, I recognize that... what is it from??" reaction. Plus is has kind of a horror punk vibe and we're into that.
Do you play live?
We're currently focusing on writing and recording as much new material as we can, but we're also pulling some more musicians into the project so we can accurately perform the songs live.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Right now we are essentially an internet band.
At this stage I feel that it's good for independant artists and so far not so good for national/signed artists with a product to sell. We're giving our music out for free, so we've got nothing to lose.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
It would definitely depend on the stipulations of that contract. Would we sign a typical demo deal? No. If things could be worked out in everyone's favor, we'd be interested.
Band History:
We (the Adams) used to be in another band together - one of us singing and the other playing lead guitar. It was fun and our bandmates were all great guys, but it lacked the chemistry that is necessary for growth as artists. When the band broke up, we went off and decided to begin our own project from which came 13 Dead End Drive.
