In the past year, the New York Heavy Music scene has experienced an explosion in the growth of it's talent. This year has also been very interesting for Horns Up Rocks, to say the least. What started as an "experiment", is quickly becoming a full blown musical movement. To celebrate New York's musical accomplishments in 2010, we have joined forces with New York's fun-band King Hell to bring you "Death-Mas 2010"!
On December 4th, Brooklyn's Trash Bar will host a line-up featuring 6 of the most exciting bands of today's underground music scene. Additionally, Jo Schuftan (founder of Horns Up Rocks) will be on hand to host and DJ the event. Horns Up Rocks has been at the forefront of the heavy music scene in New York City, helping to promote new music and revive a passion for old-school metal. Additionally, Odd Man In will be celebrating the release of their new album!
Here are all the details:
Date and time: Saturday, December 4th 2010 at 8pm
Location: The Trash Bar, 289 Grand St. in Brooklyn NY, 11211
Bands:
Odd Man In: "A tantalizing blend of thrashing riffs and gracious melodies, served up with a dose of humor and a dash of bitter, here for your education and entertainment. To know us is to fucking love us, okay?" -ODD MAN IN
IkillYa: "Our mission is to create heavy music that is exciting to play, forces us each to grow as artists, and elicits raw emotion from the listener. We write from the desperate need for others to hear us and, frankly, play because we are genetically compelled to. Our new EP Recon is a collection of warning shots assembled from our first adventures as a complete unit. Each song represents a point in our mutation and a glimpse at what is yet to come. Recon is the beginning of the war for our lives." -IKILLYA
King Hell: "Metallica meets Parliament, it’s King Hell—the Epic Defenders of Metal and Funk! With dual, dynamo front-men, epic guitar, and earthquake inducing bass and drums, King Hell's groove-infused classic metal and relentless live show come with a money-back guarantee to tear the roof off the joint, burn the house down, and make audiences dance 'round the flames—and their new CD Rhythm & Bruise makes good on their sworn, solemn vow to deliver pure rock ecstasy wherever it is needed." -KING HELL
The World Lost: "World Lost's music can be compared to the thrill of being buffeted by a Category 1 hurricane. There is no thin, peep of a sound here- the music has a full sound with crisp drums, surgically precise guitars, smooth and groovy bass lines, and vocals reminiscent of the two Phil's (Anselmo and Rind) as well as Kirk from Crowbar." -DELAWARE METAL
Thinning The Herd: "Thinning the Herd was formed in a cloud of smoke, within a recessed canyon deep inside your mind. The originating members (Tapper/Spielman) met in high school -- years later forming the songwriting union known as THINNING THE HERD." -THINNING THE HERD
Death Immortal: "Launching in the summer of 2006 as Animus of Abbas, Death Immortal came to the front of the metal scene in the middle of 2008. Like a phoenix reborn from smoldering ashes, Death Immortal emerged from the helm of other fallen acts as Chester, Mark, Alex and Jason formed to conquer and take back what’s rightfully theirs. To bring to light what is in the dark and to embrace what others ignore. The band's music is what the east coast needs, a slap in the face to the rest of the world showing that New York means business." -DEATH IMMORTAL
Entertainment: Jo Schuftan of Horns Up Rocks will host and DJ.
