About Me

Formed in Summer 2004, a brutal and melodic metal group came together with influences ranging from Pink Floyd and Coheed and Cambria to Cannibal Corpse and Dark Funeral. Originally featuring Nick Chilcote, Jason Held, Zack Chilcote and C1106 "Keenan Bouchard". A 6 track demo was released in April of 2005, and they began playing out in May of 2005. Zack left the band in June of 2005, and Rodney Martel took his place on the bass guitar. The band signed to Avalon Independent in August of 2005. Keenan left the band in December of 2005 to pursue other interests. His younger brother, Rafe, joined as the drummer to round out the lineup. Continuing to write new material, the band pushes onward, with plans to record in the near future. After doing a two week tour with Angels Beneath Me (Hegira Records), Rafe and the band parted ways and Justin B. joined the band. Pursuing a much heavier sound the band continues to crush its way through the extreme music scene in VT. The New Tony Bennett has had the pleasure of sharing the stage with many national acts, including: Hatebreed, Terror, Through the Eyes of the Dead, Death Before Dishonor, Scars of Tomorrow, Sworn Enemy, Whitechapel, With Blood Comes Cleansing, Emmure, The Miles Between, Years Spent Cold, My Bitter End, The Classic Struggle, Thumbscrew, The Acacia Strain, Demiricious, Soilent Green, Engineer, Left to Vanish, Death do us Part, Liferuiner and Corrosion of Conformity.
