Beschreibung

Product Description The ultimate hardcore band will release the ultimate hardcore DVD. Look for this DVD to be jam packed with live songs from around the world (Brazil, UK/Europe, Japan, Australia). Also included will be an entire live set captured in London in January 2006, as well as behind-the-scenes footage (and interviews) of the band recording their new album with producer Zeuss (Throwdown, Shadows Fall). Over 3 hours long and includes over 30 live songs, professionally filmed, edited, and with mixed audio. Get stoked. About the Actor Terror have cemented their status in great stone letters as guardians of old school hardcore ethics while winning the pit fervor of the new generation of metal and hardcore fans. Ignoring current musical trends the L.A. based band have stuck to their guns or guitars playing aggro, no frills, breakneck hardcore like "The Cro-Mags" and "Agnostic Front" before them. Ragged metal-tinged guitars, rapid fire drum lines, slithering bass lines and trademark double-fisted vocal attacks are trademarks of their sound. Vocalist Scott Vogel is a bundle of endless energy, leaping about stages in baggy shorts and demanding "More stage dives!" in-between songs. He can be a big kid at play who gleefully enjoys a good pit but is also drop dead serious when it comes to hardcore, screaming lyrics. Spending his formative years fronting such touchstone hardcore bands as the Buffalo, NY based Slugfest, Despair and Buried Alive Vogel has put his heart as well as his blood, sweat and tears! into this scene. He has moved across the country, forsaken a normal home-life off of the road and even broken limbs and slipped discs in his neck for this. Terror began in April 2002 shortly after Vogel moved to L.A., by July of that year it was a full-time touring band. Some four years later, the group have never spent more than a month off of the road and continue to tour relentlessly across the globe including the upcoming full runs of Brazil and Europe this spring before embarking as a featured act on the Sounds Of The Underground tour this summer (alongside groups like In Flames, As I Lay Dying and more). Long standing members of the Terror army include super-sized guitarist Doug Weber and fully inked drummer Nick Jett, both of whom served time in First Blood. The band have just experienced a royal re-shuffling with second guitarist Frank Novinec joining Hatebreed and bassist Carl Schwartz devoting his full energies to First Blood. Joining the band in their stead is Martin Stewart of Donnybrook on second guitar and Jonathan Buske who has played with Another Victim, The Promise and Rag Men. Trustkill Records, indie label powerhouse who had actually released albums by Vogel’s previous band Despair came calling and in fall 2004, Terror released its debut full-length "One With The Underdogs" on the label. Well exceeding the promise hinted on Lowest Of The Low, the full-length was well-paced but unrelenting half hour of powerful anthems and secured with guest appearances from such friends as Freddy Cricien of Madball, Jamey Jasta of Hatebreed and Lord Ezac of Skarhead. Media outlets everywhere proclaimed the band’s merits and featured them from MTV Headbangers Ball and FUSE TV’s Uranium to print outlets such as Alt Press, Revolver, Decibel, Metal Maniacs and more. High profile tours kept the band busy such as with groups like Bury Your Dead, Comeback Kid, Sick Of It All, Madball, Hatebreed, Converge, and Remembering Never. 40,000+ albums of One With The Underdogs reached stereos across the country and it seems like Terror has joined the ranks of its heroes when mentioned as essential hardcore bands. In 2005 the group reissued Lowest Of The Low with additional b-sides, cover songs and an entire live show from Tokyo that was released on Trustkill.
