ABOUT

Metal project based in NEPA. Members are from Montrose, Wyalusing, Mansfield, New Milford. We consider ourselves American folk metal, playing a mixture of melodeath with folk and bluegrass influences, with obligatory flavors of black/death/thrash/power/etc.. We are all multi-instrumentalists, but need a few more members to make sure everything's covered in each song.

I have a number of original songs written, and we are also looking to do some covers of folk metal/melodic death metal songs to round out our setlists and as a proof-of-concept of the band.
