CENTIMENT Featuring INME Members: Debut Album Due In Early 2014
November 21, 2013After years of honing their sound and searching for the ideal lineup, the boundary bothering CENTIMENT will finally unleash their debut album, "Streets Of Rage", early 2014.
In an age of excessive genre definitions, CENTIMENT are truly hard to categorize and rightfully so. A bastard hybrid mix of insane metal, frantic vocals spanning sweet melodies, demonic screams of urgency and everything in between plus a military-tight rhythm section.
Featuring Dave McPherson, Greg McPherson and Gazz Marlow of INME plus Neil Howard and Mark Shurety on bass and drums, respectively, the band embrace the DIY ethic and independent approach to all aspects of their music.
"This band has always been a labour-of-love-hobby so to speak," states vocalist Dave McPherson. "It's always been about us making music for ourselves, that we want to hear. We have no delusions of grandeur, we just want to keep creating passionate music and take it on the road and have fun with people. If anyone comes along for the ride, then it's a very welcome bonus!"
He adds: "The wordplay was a cool challenge for me as I wanted to tackle serious subjects but also mix in some dark twisted humor.
"Greg writes all the music for CENTIMENT, which is very refreshing for me, as I'm focusing on just the voice and lyrics. Also, from a geeky perspective, as some may tell from the album title, there are a lot of retro game references throughout musically and lyrically. It sounds a bit silly, but then so are we, really! Me and Greg played games religiously in our youth and it's nice to give our memories a nod."
CENTIMENT initially released the album exclusively via PledgeMusic, where pledgers also get the band's entire rare back catalog, their name in the CD sleeve and tons more cool stuff.
They'll be hitting the road for the first time in February 2014.
