Location: Huntsville, Alabama
Country: USA
Genre: Garage punk, death rock, hardcore
Full length: Alabama Bloodbath
Format: Digital
Label: Slugcult Records
Release date: March 9, 2000
Alex Story and company have always intrigued me being a sort of gloomy death rock outfit that you can’t find anywhere else. From Huntsville Alabama their style reminds me of a few shades Samhain and Misfits. Each song as lost and without a cause like the other you can really jam to this album knowing you will be in for a very bloody time. They’re the essential death rock band and have a fury that cuts the tension with a knife.
Being a force of nature Alex Story brings each song to life with the most violent lyrics he can come up with. Great music also to skate and bike to. This album really shows us all that something’s can get very interesting when you just put all the horror and stage floor excitement together. I have to say my favorite song on the album is Gone. Simple and to the point. Nothing more to see here other that a murder scene.
Check them out! -Daniel Ryan
