We’ve played 2 gigs with VeXeD WuV – 2 guys, Plix and Plague, who’s sound is best described as melding of Beastie Boys and Skinny Puppy.

BEWARE: This is NOT music related. Star Wars fans continue reading…
Beneath the surface of being the vocalist for the progressive industrial metal band, Agrippa93, I’m also die hard Star Wars fan. This year marks the 30th anniversary of Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, so it’s time to take a break from writing [...]

New Song: Our next new release on deck is The Edge of Sanity, which has gone through quite a bit of changes from it’s original state.
