Biography

Family always forges the strongest bonds. That’s certainly the case when it comes to music as well.

Steeped in a hard rock swing, brash punk energy, metallic bombast, and a healthy helping of death rock, these three musicians—Jimmy Calabrese [vocals, bass], Bobby Calabrese [vocals, guitar], and Davey Calabrese [drums]—established a diehard following and garnered immense critical praise outside of the traditional system, emerging as underground luminaries from their native Phoenix, AZ.

Tastemakers from Alternative Press and Guitar World to Metal Hammer, Rue Morgue, Fangoria, and Rock Sound have featured them. The trio has shared the stage with the likes of Tiger Army, The Misfits, She Wants Revenge, Wednesday 13, Nekromantix, and more.

“Our music should take you some place you’ve never been before.”
