Carl Leissler is the founding member of Disciples of Aggression. He was the front man of the band. When Carl had the idea to bring Disciples to life, he was introduced to Russ, by mutual friend, Sasha Petrov. When Carl heard Russ play, his style was exactly what Disciples was, heavy, aggressive and deminished. Russ was Disciples first guitar player. That was when the greatest band of it's time took it's first breath. In another bands SHOWCASE! A quote from SCENE MAGAZINE 1995,THE DISCIPLES TOOK THE STAGE AND WASN'T TAKING ANY PRISONER'S.Under"CARL LEISSLER'S vexatious and seething vocals, with RUSS and LORI who could only be discribed as (THUNDER & LIGHTING!) they ended there show with the song PITCH BLACK to leave us all in a NUCLUAR GLOW. In March of 1995 on the way home after practice, Carl was involved in a head-on collision. His injuries included a concussion and 7 stitches inside his mouth and 6 on the outside. One show was canceled, however, 4 days after the accident Disciples was on stage at (JAXX )in Springfield Virginia, opening for DOA. Where carl collapsed during a song & LORI QUOTED ON MIC( I LOVE WHEN A MAN FALLS AT MY FEET)! That gave birth to Carl's famous Quote! ( I USED MY FACE AS A FUCKING AIRBAG)Together with the collaborations of the other band members they wrote numerous songs in a short period of time. The band lasted 8 months, but within that 8 months, the band became the most sought out band in the metal genre in the DC, Maryland, Virginia Metro area. At this time Carl is no longer in the music industry, but has moved on to a life with his soon to be wife Country Sunshine, and has a wonderful daughter who is his pride and joy. He has a career in the Recycling/Trucking industry doing his part to make our country,and our Earth a better place to liveMore about Carl can be found at: http://www.myspace.com/carl5150 ____________________________________________________________ ___ Russel Calderon-AKA Russ Strahan was the first heaving up, balls to the wall guitar player and CO Founder of Disciples. With Russ's skills on guitar and his twist on diminished minors put Disciples at the height of their game. Russ along with the other members collaborated to write several songs. Russ continues to further his musical career playing with Ectoplasm, and a "new" project with Dave Calhoun (AKA Dee Brian C), Land of Doom.More about Russ can be found at: http://www.myspace.com/russ_strahan ____________________________________________________________ ___ Lori Price was and is a phenomenal guitar player. She was one of only a few female guitar players of that time. This giving Disciples the recognition that no others had. Lori's knowledge of the music industry also gave Disciples the edge, with her promotional skills. Lori with the other members collaborated to write numerous songs.More about Lori can be found at: http://www.myspace.com/xmfrancisfesterx ____________________________________________________________ ___ Dave Calhoun-AKA Dee Brian C found his love for music at the age of nine and began honing his talent at age 12. He began writing lyrics in mass quantities in 1983. Many said "Dave is the most brutal badass bass player I've ever seen" yet again giving Disciples the cutting edge and giving them the following they had. In 2005, Dave and his After Forever band mates launched an original metal project entitled After Therapy. Currently, Dave has re-teamed with former band mate Russ Strahan to form Land Of Doom. The three-piece metal group will feature Dave's return to the role of vocalist/bassist. The band looks to be performing live in early 2008. When not writing or performing, Dee spends time at home with this wife, his daughter & son, and two cats.More about Dave can be found at: DeeBrianC.com ____________________________________________________________ ___ Dale Cord-Played drums for Disciples before and after being featured in numerous influential bands, such as Immortal Reign. Some of his influences on his playing style were Neil Peart and John Tempsta. He was influenced musically from jazz to metal. Unfortunately all contact has been lost with Dale, but we do know that he has a son, Nicky Cord who was the center of his life. We hope all is well with and for Dale, and hope we hear from him soon, both personally and professionally._____________________________________________ ___________________

Influences: When it comes to influences, credit has to be given to Sean Myerovich, of The Groove Mine. Carl and Sean have been long time friends, they have known each other since the tender age of 15. When Pitch Black was written, it was Carl's intentions to call the band...Pitch Black, and the first album, Disciples Of Aggression. However, Sean was sure that the names were backwards, they argued their points...and Sean's INFLUENCES...won. Thus giving us Disciples Of Aggression, from Pitch Black Productions, with the first cut, Pitch Black! Now...for musical influences...All things heavy and aggressive. Judus Priest, Exodus, Metal Church and so on...however, we love "ALL" kinds of music. We are not just head banging metal freaks. We love Jazz, R&B, Blues, Motown, Classic Rock, Southern Rock, and Country...YES I said Country. Music is a glorious sound, of any kind...something everyone enjoys. A real musician can and will listen to any kind of music and find something they like and enjoy. That's what makes a music maker...a real musician!!!!!!!
Sounds Like: We sound like DISCIPLES OF AGGRESSION !!!!! Our own sound!!!! l We were an original band. All music and lyrics were written by the members of DISCIPLES OF AGGRESSION. We had many personal influences in life, but we never mocked, copied or covered any one sound!
