Forming in May, 2008, THESE ARE THEY, a Chicago death metal band featuring vocalist Paul Kuhr (NOVEMBERS DOOM), Guitarist Steve Nicholson (ex-NOVEMBERS DOOM), Guitarist Michael LeGros (DISINTER, EARTHEN), Bassist Wiley Wells (Earthen) and Drummer Evan Berry, would enter the metal scene with an aural assault.
Thirteen years since the release of the NOVEMBERS DOOM debut, "Amid Its Hallowed Mirth," and the departure of Nicholson from the group, founding members Paul Kuhr and Steve Nicholson have reunited to create something new. With the help of good friends and band mates, Mike LeGros, Wiley Wells, and Evan Berry, a musical style was chosen, material was written and THESE ARE THEY recorded their demo debut, keeping the band in silence until music was ready to be released. Recorded, mixed and mastered at Studio One, with Chris Wisco (Djuricic) at the helm, the recording instantly took shape.
Guitar driven, down tuned, and powerful, the material is old school Chicago death metal, with influence added from some band favorites such as Bolt Thrower, Obituary, and Entombed. The songs contain all the head banging hook you would expect from this style.
Paying tribute to the bands who have paved the way with their greatness, THESE ARE THEY will follow in the style that to this day has no equal in hook, power, and brutality.
THESE ARE THEY are currently looking for a label for a full length release in the near future.
