Desolate "New Truth (Treachery)" - Exclusive Song Premiere

When Jose Rivera (singer/cowbell master) and Jeffrey Martinez (guitarist) first met, they immediately felt a magnetic musical force between them. After a few jam sessions, they felt the necessity of starting a fresh sounding Heavy Music band. Combining elements of Thrash Metal, Hardcore and even Latino music, Desolate possess a unique sound that has helped them survive the decline of the music industry in the last 10 years. We are proud to announce that they will performing at Jo Schüftan's Metallic birthday on Thursday, October 13 at The Trash Bar in Brooklyn!
