Shatterneck

My World Visitor Map!
Shatterneck came about at the start of 2006, taking on a serious desire to write some heavy fuckin songs. Every song seemed to come out differently and no song sounded in anyway like the last; with influences ranging from System of a Down to Devil Driver, and all their favourites in between. Their initial ambition was to write the music that they would rock out to themselves.
Songs usually start out with an idea by Lee or Roach. From there, they all seem to feed off each other. Crunching riffs are put under the knife with Mark adding blast beats and Tim throwing in thumpin bass lines until the music has been written and all 5 members are happy. Marc Destruction now files through the many lyrics in his head and adds them too the songs making the picture whole and full on metal vocals and melodies adding anothr dimension to the band! An other method is also used: “The Marshall Method”. If friend of Shatterneck, Marshall, doesn’t come in and head bang automatically once performed for him, it’s not going to be good enough. Marshall hasnt failed us yet.
A huge crowed turned up on a sunday afternoon in December to show their support at their first gig. This is when their fan base started to grow; one intoxicated crowed member describing Shatterneck as “the hottest chick with the hugest jugs”. Prior to this gig, Myspace was the only way people could hear their demo. After now playing many shows and building up an ongoing fan base, Shatterneck headlined many gigs at many local clubs and pubs, Noise Bar, DV8, Bang and the tote and played with heapz of cool bands WITH INTENT TO DESTROY, BANE GOAT and PAROXYSM too name a few!
Destroy all lines soon caught wind of Shatternecks growing fan base and ability to get a crowd to go off and offered the boys a gig at Melbourne alternative nightclub, BANG!
Shatterneck don’t only have an interest in writing music, the band occasionally do a late night (early morning) radio show on Syn 90.7 FM dedicated to heavy metal and the local scene, giving any local metal band some air time provided they hand over their demo, gig dates and websites/Myspace.
