THREAT LEVEL NEW CD HAS BEEN UNLEASHED!

About Me

2007 kicked serious ass for THREAT LEVEL, opening up for HELLYEAH Halloween night in Indianapolis at the Murat Egyption Room was the ultimate highlight of the year! 2008, eight years into the millinium and THREAT LEVEL is still On The Rise, and ready to Destroy! With a new CD "A World Beyond Devastation" just released. THREAT LEVEL was originally conceived in December of 2003. The four guys that make up the group, Chad Smith-drums, Troy Welch-guitars, Jason Weaver-bass, and Frank Rapacki-vocals, started jamming together in Feburary of 2004, at first only Jason and Troy made the line up, both having jammed together in their previous band Refused Sufferance. Chad was brought into the scene, both Chad and Troy had also previously jammed together, but still needing a singer was the only thing slowing down the whole thing. After several try outs and several Internet scouting's, fliers in the music stores etc... Frank who was good friends of a band the rest of us knew answered one of our internet adds seeking a vocalist, and the four started recording demo tracks in Troy's studio dubbed "The Compound", releasing a 5 song demo CD, and in the FALL of 2004 THREAT LEVEL started playing live shows. The worlds current events and war on terrorist influenced the name of the band, giving way to the personality that has become the bands identity, fast tempos, plenty of thump, ragging vocals, blazing "maximum chunk" high gain guitars and solos, define the overall sound of the band. Determined to build THREAT LEVEL up to a national status, on a major label is the primary goal this band has, playing as many shows as possible and striving to reach the unreachable is what drives this band to stick with those goals. This band is fresh, new, raw and rippin with power, with songs like "Stand Your Ground", "Hell To Pay", "The Fire Within", and "Jawbreaker", are geared to get you pumped, and ready, Welcome To The Massacre! . .Myspace Contact TablesMyspace Contact TablesTHREAT LEVEL AT THE MURAT WITH HELLYEAH OCT. 31, 2007
