Upon A Burning Body

Upon A Burning Body was started by accident "A Side project gone wrong." These San Antonio, Texas natives mix brutal breakdowns with catchy two steps and heavy blast beats. After changing many members over time, they finally found a concrete line up. They have managed to dominate the Texas metal scene, and earned themselves a signing to the Sumerian Records family. They are known for their intensely brutal and fast sections combined with breakdowns and gang chants to match and top the best in the game. They have also become known for powerful and violent live shows.

Giving every ounce of their being over to everything that they set their minds to, CLOSE YOUR EYES blew the top off of the Abilene, Texas music scene and has brought their high energy, passionate brand of hardcore to the masses. With one listen of their Victory Records debut, We Will Overcome, audiences everywhere will notice the authenticity of this spirit-filled, hardcore outfit. Shane Raymond (Vocals) and Brett Callaway (Guitar/Vocals) first met at Hardin-Simmons University. Being the only two "hardcore" kids in the cafeteria connected them immediately.

It's a fair assumption to say that nothing much comes from the Isle of Man, and if you aren't in motorbikes or huge waterwheels then you'd be forgiven for not even knowing about it's existence. But for five friends, Elliot Kinrade (Vocals), Ben Wilde (Guitar & Vocals), Ethan Grubb (Guitar), Stuart Bedford (Bass) and Darren Shields (Drums) it's home. Having already played all over the island gathering a solid fan base on the way the band have already played in London, Sheffield and recorded their new ep 'Always Goes Down Smooth' in Aberdeen.
