Krass Judgement

Krass Judgement formed in 1998, playing original music from the beginning. After playing local parties and honing the material, they entered the studio in late 1999. The band released their first cd “You Got This” in 2000. In 2001 the band opened for Overkill where the songs from “You Got This” were debuted to rousing applause. To date, over 3,000 copies of "You Got This" have been sold locally and regionally.
After going through an array of musicians Ray Duran met James Shaw at a local 7-11 in 2003. Ray and James hit it off well and Ray informed James that he had been looking for a lead guitarist for sometime. Not long after their meeting, James joined Krass Judgement. Shortly after James joining Krass Judgement, he got in touch with Chris Green who was originally a guitarist living in New Jersey. After sometime of talking Chris moved back to Manassas, Va on a whim to join the band and pick up playing bass. Since James and Chris joined the band, they haven't looked back.
Krass Judgement went back into the studio in 2004 to start recording their second album "We Bring It". The album was finished in early 2005 and was released to the general public in February of 2005 when Krass Judgement opened up for Metal Church. The band spent the next several months getting their new material out to the masses and started broadening their shows from playing the Manassas/Springfield area to playing Richmond and other surrounding areas on a more frequent basis gaining new fans with every new venue they ventured to.
At the end of 2005 Krass Judgement parted ways with their long time drummer. In a scramble the band pulled out an old flier that they had found months previous for a drummer looking to join a band. At the time the band had a very big show coming up with Finntroll and Sodom and only had a week to get prepared for the show. In a panic Ray called the number on the flier and asked the Mike Perigo if he would be willing to come out sometime during the week and try out for the band. To Ray's surprise Mike was available to come to Manassas that day to audition. Needless to say the audition was outstanding and it was clear that this drummer could be a perfect fit for the band. With in the week before the show Mike had learned 6 of the bands songs and they were able to pull of the show with out a hitch! Mike has been with the band ever since. Shortly after Mike joining the band, they decided to go back into the studio and redo some of their old songs since Mike brought a much more heavier in your face sound to the band. By May of 2005 the band had released a 5 song demo with their new sound.
Since the release of the new demo in 2005 Krass Judgement has expanded their horizons greatly. To date Krass Judgement has played numerous shows with national acts as well as headlining the majority of their shows. The band has constantly been playing shows in Delaware, New York, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Maryland, North Carolina, West Virginia and Virginia for the past few years and is still working hard to expand further and further with every step of the way.
Ray Duran formed Krass Judgement because he was sick and tired of the “scene” and wanted to form a heavy Thrash Metal band in the old school style.
Krass Judgement is a blue-collar party band. Always has been and always will be!!
