MORTAL MADNESS
Obscene and Obnoxious! A sultry, screaming bitch; guitar crunch and squeal; thundering bass; heart palpitating drums and searing cymbal crashes; the ORIGINAL Hard Rock/Heavy Metal band from East Haven, CT.Raw drunken metal debauchery laden with powerful scream along lyrics, shredding emotional solos, rythymic moving bass lines, and bomb exploding drums. Party tunes, anthems, relationships, politics, philosophy, bullshit, and ballads thrown into a blender for good measure.
We stare into the mirror, day after day, face to face with mortality. Each day we live could be our last. We struggle, braving lifes challenges, overcoming obstacles to achieve our innermost desires. There is futility in the grand scheme of life, but we carry on undeterred. Laughing at our reflections we passionately pursue our goals having fun all the way. Life is but a journey from the cradle to the grave, share in the moment. Drink, get high, sing, scream and mosh along. It's therapeutic. Welcome to our dysfunctional family.
We Are MORTAL MADNESS:
Vocals; Ally Cat: The impassioned groupie turned singer at the helm Ally was born in Springfield, MA but moved all over the states as a kid. She spent her childhood taking piano and voice lessons and keeping extremely busy in theatre; where she developed a passion for performing and the stage. Her musical roots are in Rock N Roll, but as she grew older and life became more complicated (ALL THE BULLSHIT) she gravitated to heavier less sugar coated music. HEAVY FUCKIN METAL!!! She has been compared to Wendy O., Karen Crisis, Angela Glasgow, she has been dubbed the female Phil Anselmo...
Guitar, Vocals; Dave: Self proclaimed white trash Dave was born in Meriden, CT but was raised in rural Pennsylvania on country music. Hes a badass born to raise hell, and he wears his heavy metal concert tees as insignia. His solos are a cross between Dimebag Darryl and Zakk Wylde, but are a style uniquely his own. Hes a rebel that has been arrested at concerts and he loves guitars (he has a hell of a collection going). Look out ladies 'cause no groupie can resist him. He believes in J.C. and pure fate.
Bass, Vocals; Mad Mike: Mikes grandfather was a stand up bass player who became a music teacher, and these generational bonds of music trained and inspired Mike to become the accomplished musician he is today. Fast fingers Mike was born in Norwich, CT and has spent the past twenty years playing along with and learning as much music as super humanly possible. The rest of his time he spends developing his Wall of Thunder, his collection of basses and bass amps. He has been compared to Rex Brown and Cliff Burton.
Drums; Phil: A badass mother-f----- who says "drums are meant to be hit hard" Phil joined the Madness in January '07. He is inspired by the late jazz great Buddy Rich and Rockers like Tommy Aldridge, the late John Bonham, Cozy Powell and Randy Costello, also Shannon Larkin and Vinny Paul, he lives to play music. He is a true metal head that plays a kick ass Gretsch double bass kit. He's played up and down the east coast with his previous bands but the Madness is what really gets him high right now..it has infected his soul. He can flip and twirl his sticks better than the majorettes!! Watch for flying sticks!
