COMMENTS:
Hi. I’m Kristian Iaccino, (Known as Kris).

Tony the drummer and I have been mates since kinda (Kindergarten). He and I were playing together trying to form a band since mid-way through year 6 in 2009. That’s when we ventured into auditioning for band members. It was after attending an Angel’s concert that Tony met Rocky. After telling Rocky how good the band was, Rocky couldn’t say no, and was brought into the band as our Guitarist and vocalist. Little did he know we only knew how to play very few songs.

It was a while after that we found our base player Joshua, (Known to us as Scaps) at school. Originally he was a guitarist, but he soon adapted to bass. It was from then on that the four of us from the western suburbs of Melbourne made the band complete.

We have a close friendship, more like brotherhood, living and breathing Heavy Metal. Our hair is long, our clothes are torn, and Heavy Metal fills our veins regardless of what other people say.

Over the short time we have met some inspiring artists such as Stu (Stu Marshall) the guitarist from DUNGEON, Henrik from Sweden (Henrik Bergqvist) the guitarist of THE POODLES, and Danny (Danny Cecati) the vocalist from EYEFEAR just to name a few. Our band is blessed and destined for success and a lot of it is owed to Steve Ravic (METAL WARRIORS Pty. Ltd., MAJESTIC FILM & ENTERTAINMENT). He has motivated, inspired and believed in us. Thanks Steve.
