The West

About Me

Just as it's namesake can represent death, ascention, modern thought and innovation, The West grips the future tightly, delivering it to awed audiences as a spectacle of aural and visual mastery on a silver platter. The West fires on all of the world's rock cylinders with the cutting guitars and thunderous drums of bands some 40 years gone. Soaring vocals forever imprint the meaning of The West on the listeners frontal lobes as the four diligently and entertainingly press on in the manner of their forefathers. Stopping only to sell their souls at the crossroads, they remain undeterred on their crash-course to the front door of the rock and roll pantheon.
