X-34

Taking the best elements of their favorite bands and blending them together, X-34 creates a sound all of their own. Within each song you can hear several influences and styles. Most notably, there are guitar solos, something that has been called dead many times over. X-34 is proof the metal is indeed still very alive and kicking and that a good solo will never go away.

Shawn-Vocals, guitars

Mick-Bass, vocals

JC-Guitar, no vocals

Scott-Drums, occasional vocals

All the boys in X-34 bring with them several years and different band's worth of experience. Shawn and Mick played together in an earlier version of the band called "Gilded Martyr." That band broke up and Shawn began jamming with Scott. They formed a band called "Face34." After a few months, second guitar player, JC was added to the mix. Original bass player, Dave, left the fold in fall of 2001. Needing a replacement, Shawn called up a familiar face, Mick, to join the squad and that is the current lineup. So think of this lineup as Gilded Martyr 2002 with all new songs.

Each member has specific influences. But overall, here are a few styles: 80's era Metallica, Thrash Metal, Speed Metal.

Shawn digs Metallica

Mick digs Type O Negative

JC digs Pantera

Scott digs KISS

Shawn plays a Flying V, just like that guy from that one band. JC plays a signature Red demon-like guitar that you can't even find online if you tried. Mick plays a black evil bass. All 3 boy wonders use Peavey Amps. Scott beats Pearl drums and Zildjian Cymbals.
