Advent Wrath (Formerly Self Infliction) is a band from Chicago. Our very mixed influences make up what the band is today. We can write anything from the heaviest of metal to the mellowest of mellow.
Band/artist history
The band started in late November of 2001 with Jose Sanchez and Mike Fron. Jose found bassist and good friend, Juan Colazo and he soon joined the band. In December, Mike found drummer Sky Opila and Self Infliction was born. The summer of 2002 was Self Infliction's rise and shine to write music, September was their debute. Juan left the band to proceed with the US Marines short after. Marty Susmaras was brought in to the band as a temporary replacement. His short stay with the band gave Self Infliction time to find their next bassist, Bill Fay. Amazed by Bill's incredible slap-and-pop bass style, Self Infliction was a new band with a new sound. Personal indifferences and tension in the band resulted in Mike quitting the band in March of 2003. As of November 2003, the band has changed their name to Advent Wrath but the sound has not changed one bit.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
We play most of our shows in the Chicagoland area. We love playing shows, regardless of where we play.
Your musical influences
We try to create our own sound, and as a band we try not to get pigeon-holed with one particular sound or associated with one particular band. All four members have lots of different influences from old school metal to hardcore and so on. But we overlap with bands like Killswitch Engage, Mudvayne, Chimaira,etc.
