Band History:

Here is our official bio:

Spawned in the wasteland better known as Miami, The Fantastic 5 roared onto the death rock scene in 2002 with their debut album ....Saves the Universe; Part One. The band is held in high regard for their legendary super high octane shows. Audiences minds are blown clean by the bands unadulterated blistering live performances driven by the raw edge of guitarist Roxana Camacho's lead guitar, Scott Mudry's gut busting bass, Steve "Dog" Monell's thunderous drums and lead singer Tony Nassif's monumental soaring vocals and ass tight rhythm guitar. The band's latest album, Dead by Easter, joins lead singer Tony's punishing growls with crushing drums to create a disc overflowing with sludgy anthems that drive themselves deep into the heart of the listener. With standout tracks like "Stabbed on the Metrorail", "Automatic Heart," and the title track, and with the band geared up to record more fan favorites like "Ultrasonic" look for The Fantastic 5 to be a major factor in the death rock landscape for years to come.
