Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
This Los Angeles based group was officially formed in 2003 and consists of three musicians who have been sweating their ass off playing in various bands across the world. We are currently on an extensive search for a vocalist to complete the line up. Very Percussive bass style, heavy-chunky guitars and funky-slamming drums makes up our sound. Dark and aggressive makes up our vibe. The infectious energy of the players makes the audience sweat. They can feel the vibe and can tell this band is for real. After playing in a rock band and touring different countries for the Department of Defense, Damian met up with Eric. They played together in a band that soon broke up. Their chemistry together was perfect. They decided to establish their own group with a sound and vibe that was fresh. After many auditions for a guitar player, they decided to bring in an old party bro named Bill Sablan. Bill was the right man for the job because he respected Damian and Eric as musicians and was up for the challenge. So now we are hoping to find the next member to join this band.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
We did a few gigs in LA WITHOUT a singer just to test the waters and get peoples reaction. Everybody has dug our shit and the response has been really good. Some people say "DANG you guys have balls playing without a singer, you don't need one"
