The Grimace (Wants more shows!)

About Me

Hailing from the Philly Burbs, The GRIMACE is the brainchild of ex-Bury The Day members Austin Hodges and Dave Madere. With the help of ex-CICADA member Dan Herb and Josh Sawyer (Ex-Vocalist of Krysis) the two have created some what of a monster. The GRIMACE blends high speed agressive punk with the thunderous groove and fury of American metal and some light jazz to keep things interesting.
