War Tribe

About Me

Almost a decade ago, the paths of five musicians crossed, resulting in one of the most anticipated bands to hit the music scene in years. The gears to the machine that is War Tribe began turning in 1999 when RC, Baker, (Downfall-Mortem A.D.) Rob (original Amnesty), and Okey “Monster” Lester (Blue Skies Fail-Mental Distortion) met up at a local venue. From there, the member’s previous projects shared the stage regularly and the tribe began to take shape. Dougy D (South of Steel-Eleven 29) was already in the mix and never even knew it.”Dougy and I were in our first band together, we grew up together, and were always close friends.” says drummer Monster. Dougy D, originally a guitarist, began honing his skills and drawing attention to himself everywhere he played. He and Baker studied guitar theory together in their spare time, which led Dougy D to writing the thunderous, nearly heart stopping bass lines in War Tribe. RC and Baker, already retaining local legend status, have been laying waste to establishments with their brutal, in your face, guitar riffs and skull splitting leads for years. And thought it seemed impossible, their skills have only intensified in War Tribe. Now, RC and Baker set out to orchestrate the most devastating riffs ever heard by the human ear. With the epic sound already in place, it was only fitting to have the message delivered by someone who shared the drive and vision. The tribe called upon Rob to lead the way and spread the word. With his tormented screams as the battle cry, and the unsettling straight to the point lyrics, Rob is a force to be reckoned with. Finally, the tribe needed a seriously sick metal drummer who could not only keep up, but compliment the sound and accent the message. Which lead them straight to “Monster”. With drums like this backing your band, your sure to get your point across. War Tribe is more than just a band, it is a brotherhood, and a way of life. Their music is a tool for them to stand up against injustice in today’s world and not only battle tyranny, but to guide in the quest for wisdom. “ We hope that everyone who comes out to a show takes at least one piece of knowledge with them. We are about sharing wisdom and showing our fans that they are not alone.” says front man Rob. As if applying the blood of their enemies as war paint, the band is currently writing new material and will be on the War Path soon. We look forward to seeing new material from the Tribe and hope that you will come join the War Tribe Nation!My tribe, your tribe, our tribe, WAR TRIBE!
