THEBLINDUNION.COM says:
The Grand Atlantic. Hailing from the depths of the Mid-Willamette Valley, they burst forth in a blur of swinging guitars, shards of broken drum sticks, spit and burning embers that pour from their eyes. This six-piece, while still powerful individually, comes together like Megazord to create something beautiful and terrifying at the same time. Their music is a balance of black metal, melodic chord progressions, flowing harmonies, fast and heavy drums, with aggressive and commanding vocals. They take time to make sure each song tells a story both musically and lyrically. Wielding this music as there weapon, there live show engages those that face them with a fury that takes many captive and few can escape.

What happens when you combine two parts Unshrunk and four parts Letters? You get post-hardcore/rock band The Grand Atlantic. Depending on your age, or when you started attending Salem shows, you may remember hardcore/metal act "Unshrunk" (or possibly Morgan La Fey for others). Or for some of you, it may have been post-hardcore/indie rock band Letters. These local boys know a few things about music and performance and they show that in their live performance. Tonight was nothing different. Despite technical difficulties, TGA pushed forward. Mixing heavy breakdowns (aka The Devil Wears Prada), low growls (i.e.-Unshrunk/Zao) and an on-stage light show that makes for any good show. Finishing the night, they ended with sing-a-long song "Circles" and invited everyone on stage to end it on a high note.

Show Review: Sept 8 @ Ike Box: The Grand Atlantic, A Hope For Home, Fallstar & Sound of Silence

Written by Andy    It's not often that I go to a show and want to, let alone stay for, every band that is playing but this show was destined to be different. Opening the show was ...
