Band Members:Snuff Film Fest is an alternative rock music project born out of Post-Katrina New Orleans. Most songs are composed and recorded with equipment that has been restored after suffering Hurricane Katrina flood waters. The music shows strong Metal roots, with obvious influences of early punk, "No wave", and industrial.House beats and experimental guitar techniques are often used during recordings. Lyrics are written as straight spoken word poems and explore themes of mismatched ideals of free world citizens against dismal third world oppression, and general religious and political hypocrisy.
Influences: Guitar Influences- Daniel Ash (Bauhaus, Love and Rockets, Tones on Tail); Steve Stevens (Billy Idol); Adrian Smith (Iron Maiden, Bruce Dickinson Solo); Jeff Hanneman/Kerry King (Slayer); Roy Z (Bruce Dickinson Solo); Prince; Ace Frehley (Kiss); Brian Gregory (The Cramps); Rikk Agnew (Christian Death); & Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath).Bass Influences- Kim Gordon (Sonic Youth); Steve Harris (Iron Maiden); Simon Jonathon Gallup (The Cure); Tim Commerford (Rage Against the Machine, Audioslave); Lemmy Kilmister (Motorhead); Mike Mills (R.E.M.).Drumming Influences- Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth); David Grohl (Foo Fighters, Nirvana); Nicko McBrain (Iron Maiden).Vocal & Lyrical Influences- Kurt Cobain (Nirvana); Jim Morrison (The Doors); Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden, Solo Career); Lee Renaldo (Sonic Youth); Paul Stanley (Kiss, Solo Career); Johnny Cash; Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys); Chuck D (Public Enemy); Marilyn Manson; Paul Di'Anno (Iron Maiden); Ian Astbury (The Cult); Jack White (White Stripes, The Raconteurs); Rozz Williams (Christian Death); Andrew Eldritch (Sisters of Mercy).Also, it goes without saying that we who do this thing only operate in a world that was created by Hank Williams, Sr.; Chuck Berry; John Lennon; The numerous early blues artists of the Mississippi Delta; Black Sabbath; and The Stooges. Anyone who won't admit this either doesn't know any better, or doesn't care to tell the truth. Cheers!
