COUNTERACT BROKE UP AND IS NO MORE

About Me

Hey everyone Tim here, it seems as though that our original site has been deleted somehow.... we have A LOT of friends to get back so we appologize if you get a friend request from us but we're just trying to get back to where we were. If you wanna help out just throw us a friend request, it'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks to everyone who has stuck with us and has been spreading the word we want to thank each and everyone of you and keep up the work you guys fuckin KICK ASS!!!
Counteract is a thrash/metal band from Central Pennsylvania consisting of Benjamin “Remi” Youtz - Vocals, Tim Donofrio - Drums, Zack “Sanchez” Graham - Guitar, Pete Munroe - Bass, and Branden "Boo" Kreider - Guitar (Temporary until further notice). They have been in the metal scene since mid 2002 and are not just another self-proclaimed band. Instead they let their music and ever growing fan base speak for them. These five young musicians play the music that they love, not what is selling the most records or getting the most air time. They refuse to succumb to trends or to suggestions from anyone who wishes for them the change their style.
Counteract has opened up for many national acts including:
ILL NINO&nbsp
SINCH
BREAKING BENJAMIN
NONPOINT
JIMMIE’S CHICKEN SHACK
SKINDRED
SMILE EMPTY SOUL
RA
VANILLA ICE
POWERMAN 5000
HALESTORM
KITTIE
BYZANTINE
SPYDERBABY
Some major influences in Counteract’s decision to make a move in a new musical direction are: Trivium, Shadows Fall, Killswitch Engage, Pantera, Slipknot, Metallica, and Chimaira. Counteract’s goals at this time are to get on an independent label (optional), tour the U.S. and develop a nation wide fan base, and eventually get signed onto a major record label. They also are making it a point to play Ozzfest and someday be in a position to further support their musical heroes/influences on national and international tours. But ultimately, these talented young musicians dream of headlining their own national and international tours and continuing to play the music they love for their supportive fans.
