Woe, Is Me

Emerging from the rubble of various local and signed bands, Woe, Is Me builds its self on an ever expanding experimental level of musicianship. Being signed before even their first show, and only weeks after being “public” from Atlanta’s local scene, these kids pack a powerful punch easily seen behind their catchy choruses, and punchy break downs. Either it being “Electronic” influences, or “balls” full instrumentation, the constant energy is never lacking amongst their tracks.
