Method Zero
we are from the columbus, phenix city area.
we each have much experience playing different kinds of music, but what we are doing now makes us realize our place. we have tried to create a sound that is unique and recognizable as us.
we are one of a very few bands in our area brave enough to focus on our own material. so far we see that it's a good formula. we are constantly looking for venues that we can share our music with everyone.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
