Formed in late spring of 2009, The Deed Of Martyrs are a thrash metal band based out of Fort Collins, Colorado. With many influences ranging from old school thrash metal to new school thrash metal, each member of The Deed Of Martyrs brings unique talent and energy to the table. JEREMY YAKEL's guitar style has face pounding low-end sound, mixed with some rock&roll and fast thrash influenced guitar riffs. His style and sound is awesomely complimented by drummer CHRIS GUMZ, with his heart pounding and hard stomping beats. Chris'' style and skills are nicely orchastrated to accent Jeremy's guitar riffs. Bassist BRYAN BULL contributes to the low-end sound with solid and heavy, drop-kicking rythm. However, Bryan isn't a bass player with the sole job of just keeping the low-end. Bryan has an influence that comes from the groovy riffs of funk, therefore, he steps up as an important factor in the sound. Vocals and lyrics by MARSHALL HOLLEN, completes the quartet with vocal patterns and lyrics that are supercharged with energy and sheer brutality! In addition to Marshall's vocals, Chris Gumz's back up vocals and lyrics create a dynamic sound that will surely make a few of their songs, like "No Fate", an anthem for their fans and metalheads alike! Over the years the metal industry and genre has become crowded with bands that die-out or fall apart, turning hopefuls into failures. However it is with good speculation, that one day The Deed Of Martyrs will find their way through that crowd of copycats and "wannabes." Leaving one question for the masses.....ARE YOU READY FOR JUDGMENT DAY? more >>>
