Seattle's Slave Traitor is daring people to walk the plank over their blend of aggressive metal.
Featuring the triple vocals of bassist Marc Burno , guitarist Eric Kempton, and guitarist Jake Willanger along with drummer Steve Hass, Slave Traitor is providing the US and the rest of the world a glimpse of the shape of things to come from this band of turn-coats and cut-throats.
Forming in early 2005, drawing inspiration from genres such as New York hardcore, Arizona stoner rock, New Orleans sludge, British doom, and San Francisco/Oakland thrash, Slave Traitor and their fiery brand of music have been seared in to the flesh of many audiences.
Sharing the stage with bands like Down , High On Fire , Rwake , Weedeater , The Hidden Hand, Kylesa , Jumbo's Killcrane , Stinking Lizaveta , and Zeke showcased the band as a tight live act with memorable hook-filled songs and an energetic emotional performance.
Released 6/6/6, Black Narcissus is the 5 song CD from Slave Traitor on Worm Fodder Recordings . Get the Black Narcissus CD along with t-shirts, stickers, patches, and pins at any Slave Traitor show!
