A brutal three-point vocal attack style together with, crushing guitars, pummelling bass, and thundering drums create “a gigantic wall of sound capable of smashing through the thickest of barriers” (Moshville Times) whilst retaining relentless groove, clarity and focus.

Face Of A Stranger

Midlands based Hard Rock/Metal band with a range of influences including Metallica, Alter Bridge, Staind and Guns N Roses. These influences have blended together to form a sound of heavy guitar riffs, crushing drums and huge sounding vocals.
Their debut EP was released in 2014 and then re-released online in 2020 with 2 new tracks added which have gone on to receive over 100,000 combined plays on Spotify from all over the world.
Fast forward to 2022 and the current line up was put together by bringing in Dan Brewer on drums and Stan McDonald on bass.
The end of 2022 saw the beginning of the recording of a 3 track EP which took a distinctively heavier and darker tone when compared with the early material that the band are excited to play live across the UK this year alongside their brand new tracks from their 5 track EP to be released soon.
