Awesome! Riveting! Amazing! Bad Ass! Special thanks to Nick from Resolution 15 for putting together the show flyer! We’re really excited about sharing the stage with all our friends at the upcoming Saint Vitus show. So excited, in fact, that Dmitry volunteered to have his heart ripped out just so we could take the picture for this flyer. Thanks dude!
To everyone’s surprise, when Dmitry’s heart was removed from his chest… it wasn’t black. I was under the impression Continue reading
Holy crap, 10 days have gone by already? The excitement is still in the air but the help is seeming to only come from a couple of key places. I feel like the day I announced that we need help the outreach was amazing but now reality is setting in for people. It’s all well and good to be excited about the show but we need to actually solidify the venues.
It’s very helpful to know what clubs / venues are the best places to rock out with you. Feel free to chime in with your opinion, even if you don’t have a contact there. We can make the connections happen! We just need to know where you want to see us play! Continue reading
Sam Roon here. I decided I’m going to document the trials and tribulations of booking a tour on your own. We’ve done it before but there were a ton of mistakes made and this time around I’m trying to learn from those mishaps and execute with a little more efficiency.
So we tried to get some booking agents to help us out but because we’re about as popular as a benchwarmer on the chess team in the professional world of heavy music, there’s not a whole lot these guys can do for us. It’s not about the music or anything personal.. it’s just that in the trying times of people stealing music online and an over-saturated scene, every band needs to be able to have some kind of backing and we’re just too small to guarantee what they’re looking for.
That being said, we’re a fucking live band and if we’re not playing shows then we might as well kill ourselves. To prevent the untimely death of the members of HUNG, we decided that we’re going to do this shit ourselves. As our good friend from the band IKILLYA would say, we’ve gotta “earn our stripes.” And that’s exactly what we intend to do. Continue reading
“Because sometimes Metal is the only thing louder than the madness that goes on inside my head.” - Alex Cohen, drummer for Pyrrhon
I was struck by an incredibly powerful, dissonant chord within me the day that Alex told me these words. It finally all made sense, this attraction to the music and art form that is Metal. (Writer’s note: Just because I call metal an art form does not mean that I consider those who play or create it “artists.” That is a very special and honorable designation that only goes to those deserving of such a title, not just to anyone. So, that being said, NO; Emmure and Attack Attack or Attack! Attack! and Waking The Cadaver are NOT artists. They’re assholes. There, I said it. I feel better). Continue reading
