About Me

Special Ops has emerged to become one of the most sought after outfits in an age where bottom heavy distorted elegance is found to consort with ethnically infused infectious rhythms. Thrusting with a double barrelled vocal assault and securing with a well-armed rhythm section, it is standard operational procedure for this joint task force to be moving to higher ground.With quick and accurate bombardment, they have been able to blow away North American audiences using a fully equipped musical attack. Singer Abe Froman with a style of his own and a stage energy that needs to be seen. Bassist Wally Thornhill and new Drummer Clarence Mcgillacutty add the pounding and power followed by Guitarist Akbar Johnsons accuracy of a sniper and vocal balance that sets Special Ops apart from the rest. The group has gained recognition by means of their unique chemistry which functions in creating their cutting edge music. Their influence stems from bands reminiscent of Alice in Chains, Guns n Roses, Metallica and blends to form a sound that is curiously enchanting to the human ear, a blend of Evanescence meets System Of A Down, and Nirvana.Special Ops is available through: HMV, Indie Pool, CD Baby, The Diskery, www.opsmission.com, bestbuy.com, www.amazon.ca.Digital distribution through: MusicNet, Apple iTunes, MusicIsHere.
