Contending Biography
“Awake. For a moment, time is unexpectedly frozen, like the grass during an early fall daybreak; the fog of my memory holds of the darkness of reality. Is this real or is this fake? The beauty of fog is solitude – its gentle embrace is carelessly there for my own sake.” Contending - The Silence of it All
Exploding back into the scene after a year and a half long hiatus, Contending is back with a slimmed down lineup and are eager to release their new, original sound to the world. A faith-based metalcore band out of Culpeper, Virginia, Contending lashes out with energy, passion, and musical complexity.
Contending carries a mission - to bring awareness to the painful reality of PTSD, depression, and suicide, of which many of the band members have struggled with. Contending wishes to take these painful experiences and put them to music, not just as a means of expression, but also to help those who have similar challenges by being a voice in the silence.
We don't know your pain, but we know pain. You're not alone.
