Despite skepticism to the possibility, A Moment's Piece's music satisfies those searching for substance in their music without sacrificing the goal of experienceing songs that are both memorable and worth while. The band lingers between the hardcore metal scene, and the brutality of old school thrash, where the band delivers on both shores. Imagine a breakfast table wherein As I Lay Dying, Killswitch Engage, All That Remains, Unearth, Parway Drive, Bury Your Dead and All Shall Perish collide head-on, each diving in for the last peice of bacon.
Rechristened from the embers of Iron Jawed Angel, the groundbreaking New Jersey band which four of this band's current members previously resided, A Moment's Piece builds upon the genre-defying foundations of its earlier incarnation and refines it with a stronger focus on attention to detail, mood, and playing as tightly as possible. With a lineup that boasts experiences with other revered bands such as the former Iron Jawed Angel, Nightkast, The Anger Management Project, Voice Of The Conquered, Ave Maria, and To Our Independence, this lineup is a solid declaration of good things soon to come.
Don't expect a particular sound, a quantifiable style. Don't expect to put us in a box and simply say, "your band sounds like this band, or that band." We each draw our influences from every spectrum of the musical universe, so at times, expect to be lost. We want you to be.
This is music created by five close individuals who love music as a whole, yet A Moment's Peace uses the breadth and scope of their songs only as means to an end. You may be struck by the distance you've traveled, but it's more likely that you'll simply be moved, with moments that refuse to depart from your memory. Try to forget what your ears have come to expect. Instead, just close your eyes, open your mind. And listen.
