The Assembly

The Tide Has Turned!!

About Me


What was once feared is now loved. What was once hated is now accepted. In a time when lies and deceit are mistaken as truth with reckless abandon, The Assembly plot on with meticulous precision...Self-produced at Center Neptune, The Assembly continue to musically bombard with their own brand of distopic rock, fueled with themes of armageddon, conspiracy, and political strangleholds.
The Assembly have been featured guests on Q101's Crash Test Radio, Local 101, Mancow's Morning Madhouse, and Fearless Radio's Live Music Binge.Both EP's can be found at Reckless Records, Lori's Planet of Sound, Record Emporium, Hard-Boiled Records, CDBABY.COM, and Apple iTunes.
"All tunes are first rate, helping cement the group's growing reputation as one of the tastier morsels presently available on the local music smorgasbord."
-Jeff Berkwits
Illinois Entertainer - review of Paranoia Will Destroya EP
"The vocal delivery, haunting and echoed, matched with the hook-heavy songwriting, makes the band instantly accessible without sounding derivative (The Smiths are there, sure, but so is some heroin-chic). This is a band to watch."
-Tom Lynch
New City Chicago - review of Paranoia Will Destroya EP
"Check out what industry insiders already know. This ain't your little brother's Warped Tour pop. This is the real shit, and it just might give you a toothache it's so sweet..."
-Q101's Local 101
"...one more musical entity for Chicagoans to be damn proud of reminding others 'They're from Chicago.'"
-Illinois Entertainer
"...their sound is more tailored for the thousands of cheering crowds flooding international music festivals than it is for the small stages of local Chicago clubs..."
-Chicagoist.com
"These guys have it...they're gonna be stars."
-Q101's Crash Test Radio
