RAISE THE GUNS Biography
RAISE THE GUNS is built on a concept of power and action. It is a rebellion against hypocrisy and oppression by way of strength. This Southern California, thrash-based metal band has been slugging it out in bars and clubs from Los Angeles to the Mexican border, opening for such bands as Soulfly, Warbringer, Green Jello, Throwdown, Death by Stereo, and Black Oil. On their way they have allied with other like-minded psychopaths in a campaign to wage war against the uninspired and cliché driven brand of metal that has lingered for the past several years in a tired, post-scenester hangover. RAISE THE GUNS combines both melodic and shredding guitar solos with an evil, thunderous rhythm section. The vocals are delivered with raw sincerity, unapologetically taking on topics of freedom, rage, genocide, political corruption, and violent revolution, all set to a crushingly maniacal soundtrack of high-octane metal. Their music embraces all that is heavy and aggressive, drawing from various genres to forge their stripped-down, brutally honest sound. RAISE THE GUNS is more than just an independent band with dreams of world domination. It is a call-to-arms, to all true metalheads around the world.
