Why this name?
The government used to use a code called soundex coding for things like the census, military records, etc. the code changed your last name into a series of letters and numbers. R-230 is the code for my last name

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

Band History:
I have been in several local NY bands over the past 20 years, that never really got off the ground. Its wasn't until I took some of the demo's I had aquired over time and slapped them together and formed R230 that I got any attention.So here I am serveral CD's later each one in demo format but each better than the last. Recently after being witness to the growing local metal scene I have once again been bitten by the performance bug and have enlisted some of the great local Bronx/Westchester talent in my quest to return the metal crown to New York!!!!
Your influences?
Slayer, Kiss, Black Sabbath,Testament, Judas Priest, Manowar, Suicidal Tendencies, Iron maiden, Iced Earth,The Misfits, Too many too keep listing
