About Me

End Code To Apply Music Player Skin

Gravel Blaster is the longest running death metal band from Fort Smith Arkansas. At times its been the only metal band in town that was not following the current mtv trends.
"We made it through nu-metal ,now if we could just get out of this emo thing." - Death Metal Jim

We have had few member changes,
(people come and go but the metal must not stop.)
We thank everyone that has been in the band .
You are forever family!

Brandi "The Wray-of-Hate" Vocals,
Came in to try out and got the gig on the spot. She also plays guitar and bass and is looking for a drum set.

Erick "Half Dead" The Bassist,
Is the newest addition to the fold. He learned the songs at a record pace , He also plays cello ,mandolin.

Billy "Chainsaw" The Guitarist,
Was in Vyrulent on bass . While he was in Vyrulent he started Southern Dominion moving to guitar.
Just in recent months Billy has put Southern Dominion back together with the original drummer.

"Death Metal" Jim The Drummer,
Was originaly a bass player moving to drums (due to lack of drummers.) He was in Vyrulent with Billy and also a shit load of other bands. He is also currently the bass player for the thrash metal band Razor Fate.

Featuring song themes of conflict and torment, Gravel Blaster brings professionalism and energy to every gig they play. Currently accepting booking invitations throughout Arkansas and Oklahoma, Gravel Blaster is looking to expand that base even further in the near future.

We have shared the stage with M.O.D. , Vader , Kataklysm , Grave Worm , Incantation , Origin , Internal Suffering , Unmerciful , The Absence , Speed/Kill/Hate , Vampire Mooose , Year of Desolation . Just to name a few.
