Band: Retaliation
From: Birmingham, Alabama
Their formation story:
(Rivers, guitar): "Me and August (vocals) had been wanting to do a new band together for a while now and finally decided to make it happen. Adrian also wanted to play drums in a band, so he hopped on drums. We wrote the demo in my garage in a couple of weeks. We threw our homies Will and Tanner on guitar and bass. We recently played our first show in Nashville with Exit Life and Strikeforce."
Their sound in their own words:
"For our sound, we wanted to make a moshy type of band, but we also really appreciate fast parts. We were pulling from All Out War, Merauder, and Kickback's formula for sure."
Latest release info:
"For the demo, we wanted to pump out three songs so we could play some shows. We self-released some CDs, and now Stronger Than Pride is doing a small run of tapes."
Future plans:
"We have a few shows coming up in August, but besides that we are working on a couple more songs to hopefully put out before the end of the year. We are going to try to play as much as possible in the next year, so look out for us in a city near you."
What other bands from their region should we check out?
"Check out Cold Hard Steel, Path of Destruction, Twisted Luck, Lethal Method, Life Goes On, Bareknuckle, Ladder to God, Forced Neglect, and Time Bomb."
Demonstration is available on cassette via Stronger Than Pride.
