Brutal Nite of Metal at Sudsy's on Jan.12, 2007!!

Death Metal returned to Sudsy's on January 12, 2007!!! Cincy tore it up with the 4 bands there. Opening was DEAD BROKE, then THE ALL KNOWING, then DETACHED, and headlining was DEATH BROKER. This was such a great nite because these are 4 of my select fav metal bands in the Cincy area that are unsigned. Hopefully, that will be changing soon!
Okay, so here ya go...DEAD BROKE is from Dayton, Ohio and have the sponsorship from Jaggermeister and Sam Ash Music. Their bio claims they were formed in early 2003, Dead Broke is a four member line-up that has crept up on the metal scene and taken it by force. This all original aggressive metal band from Dayton OH has a dual Axe attack that is unstoppable. Their crunch riffs and blistering solo's have made a hard impact on audiences, making people take a second look at metal bands. Combating the Axe attack are bass lines conjured from the depths that will make ones soul shiver. Devastating drum rolls and unstoppable double bass blasts keep things feverishly brutal. It's the rumble that beckons you to join. With a range that is from Hell's abyss to the screams of pain and agony, vocals are multi-layered, dark, deep and nasty. The members are Dave Euwbanks (vocals/growls), Adam Long (guitar shredder number 1), Dave Hammonds (guitar shredder number 2) and Eric Barnes (drummer). Catch them in a rare appearance at The Blue Note in Cincy (Price Hill) on Saturday Jan.27th. They're gonna blow you away!! For more info/pics/tour dates go to visit www.myspace.com/deadbrokemetal and keep up on one of the hottest death metal bands in the midwest area!
Next up is my all time fav metal band THE ALL KNOWING. This band is pro all the way. Consisting of Jason Viebrooks (Bass/bkup vocals), John Lynn (Guitar), Shawn Harford (Drums) and Billy Cox (Vocals and Coors Light). All are veteran pro musicians. The All Knowing is a band that is known for their "in your face" live shows and a no bullshit, no hiding behind trends approach to writing music and performing. The lyrics are drawn from deep within themselves and sung and played with the same deep passion. Thunderous bass tones, crisp melodic guitar riffs, solid drums all enhance the raw vocals which bring the lyrics to life. Songs like "I Am What You Made Me", "Be A Man", "So Complicated" are just a few that make you say "Hell Yeah! I can relate to that!" The band will be self-releasing their debut full~length cd very soon called "OURS FOR THE TAKING". They have played as opening support for numerous national acts including Ill Nino, God Forbid, Byzantine, just to name a few. Look for The All Knowing in your town in 2007 and join them in their relentless pursuit of aggression!!! The month of March 2007 THE ALL KNOWING will be on tour in support with TEMPLE OF BRUTALITY (www.templeofbrutality.com) which features Dave Ellefson (ex-Megadeth).

Next up was DETACHED. This band is hot on the local Cincy metal scene. With a blend of crunchin' ass guitars, driving beats and vocals and lyrics you can understand and relate to. Detached as a band has no boundries, they seem to play songs instead of worrying whether its a Metal, Punk, HardCore, Thrash or Hard Rock song...they simply do what they do. Detached is Jack Saylor Guitars/Vocals), Jamey Evans (Guitars), Kevin Coyle (Drums/Vocals) and Charlie Brown (Bass).

Ending the night was the sickest band of all...and I mean that in a good way! It was DEATH BROKER. After have gone thru some line~up changes the last half of 2006, this is the tightest, talented version. Formed in Late 2005, DEATH BROKER is a five member line-up that is taking the metal scene by force. This all original metal band from Cincinnati, OH has a dual Axe attack that is unstoppable. Their heavy riffs and blistering solo's have made people turn heads. Shredding the Axe attack are Rhino and Drew Northgard. The brutal bass attack is played by David Wilsman. The double bass attack with drum rolls from hell is played by Paul Arthur, and the screams are from Anthony. These guys are playing on Feb.3rd in Lima Ohio at The Firehouse then it's down to Covington Ky at the Mad Hatter on Feb. 19th and back to Cincy on March 10th and April 5th at Sudsy's.
