Opposite Box

We don't wear enough camoflauge to be a metal band

About Me

Considered to be one of the most determined and aggressive up-and-comers in the Chattanooga area, Opposite Box blends rock and roll, metal, punk rock, funk, jazz, and blues into a sound that seems familiar enough, but is still completely their own. Opposite Box wasn't formed to break new ground or create a new genre, but rather to write music based on the tried-and-true principle of "Play What You Feel." Since its inception the band's trademark has been the energy portrayed on stage during live shows. For a full band bio, read the blog entry titled "Press Pack."
Be on the lookout for new songs, an upcoming album, upcoming shows, and other upcoming upcomings.
