What term would YOU use to condense the words: heavy, emotional, epic, groovy, thematic, technical, animated, heartfelt, powerful, and catchy"? Well I've found one, WINTERS END. While there are certainly heavier acts around, rarely do you see one that has strong influences that range from Bright Eyes to Vital Remains, and have every influence in bewteen shine through in the process. "It were never about writing most "brutal" music, just to get kids out to shows on friday nights cause they havent got a thing else to do, ya know? It's heartfelt. My lyrics mean so much to me, and when backed up by frankis guitar work with those melodies oh so pure, it brings a tear to my eye alot of times", says Andie(drums). Hailing from the Los Angeles Area, Winters End has set out to do two things: "use the melodies to invoke emotions and create music that people our age can have some sort of connection to..oh, and GO PROPER FUCKIN WILD!!! " says the drummer. Formed in November 2006 The band remains somewhat of a rarity in their hometown for the simple fact they are hardly ever seen. Andie responds: "We just aren't like the 30 other Pomona bands that play the same songs at the same houses to the same 30 or 40 kids every weekend. If your favorite band were in town every other day im sure you'd get proper tired of em too right?". While the band remains humble and admits they have done nothing spectacular up to this point, many people would beg to differ. "Ive had quite a few people in the past few months tell me that we are like nothing they've ever heard before. its an awesome feeling, and im starting to beleive em", he says. Setting aside social stigmas (like the onstage ingestion of cigarettes and widespread rumors regarding a certain drummer) allows one to absorb the electricity pulsing from the stage whenever they choose to dominate. Its a real event, and definitely worth watching and dare i say, feeling? WINTERSEND can be caught at scattered shows throughout Los Angeles, Orange, and San Bernadino Counties in support of the new EP release "Even The Dead Are Judged". They can be reached most
