About Me


Williamsburg based band
damaged franklin

creates an uncompromising aggressive LOUDIsSubtle© music for the intellectually delirious: a phenomenal fusion of avant garde EXPERIMENTAL rock jazz & classical elements.
An Ongoing Conceptual-Deconstructive Project Of Varied Creative Modalities
The band premises itself on an explicit freedom of expression that leaves no emotion unburned--as incendiary as the abyss itself.
