About Me
I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)In the school year 2004-2005, we all attended 8th grade at TSE HO TSO Middle School. At that time Justin Jymison was drumming’ for a band called Hunting Idols, led by Wade Adakai of Fort Defiance AZ on lead guitar and lead vocals, Steven Peskligai also of Fort Defiance AZ on rhythm guitar, Seth Cantsee of Standing Rock NM on bass guitar. The band was complete and they played for Justin’s 8th grade promotion reception and at a Gallup High School graduation reception. At the beginning of their freshman year school year 2005-2006, Wade and Justin had come to a disagreement causing Justin to leave Hunting Idols with Seth soon following. Justin and Seth would start Fallen Angels and ask Raleigh Silversmith of Tse Bonito NM. To join on lead guitar and Seth moving to rhythm gurtar. Practice had begun on original material with very little success. Guitar riffs and drum patterns were made, but no songs completed. With the band name changing to Biznatch we continued to get together and practice. After a year of screwing’ around, Seth moves to Chandler AZ leaving the band without a rhythm guitarist. With the band name changing again to Rotten Human and soon to the current name Rotten Earth, 2007 begins with a more serious attitude, Raleigh asks Jared Earl of Window Rock AZ to join on bass guitar, one week into practice Jared shows more talent as a guitarist and is soon moved to rhythm guitar. A few weeks go by and Jared tells the others that his cousin plays bass; Brad Kirk of Greasewood AZ accepts the invitation and becomes the last piece of the puzzle.
After coming together as a group we all find our music interest are almost identical, our common favorite being Megadeth, Slayer to name a couple with many more. Tension starts to grow amongst the group as we are invited by Underground Alliance, to open for Michael Graves at Wowies Gym. This is our first gig and we want to be at our best. Michael Graves has to cancel his tour due to an inexperienced tour manager. So the group is back to idle again, still practicing. Underworld Productions starts up after parting ways with Underground Alliance and invites us to play JawnstocK 07, with bands such as Precious Falls, AKEM Warlords (KAME and Konquered), Foreshadow, Sacred Blood, The Creeping Puppets, Drazil, Absolute Redemption and Every Image Dies. We accept the offer and go back into the garage to get ready for the show. A lot of time is focused on original stuff as tension grows leading to the departure of Raleigh just a week before the show due to differences in opinions. Justin talks Raleigh into changing his mind, at least for a week to see how it works out. Come show time, original material is not complete and ROTTEN EARTH is forced to do covers. Raleigh decides he is out after the show is done. He said he would like to pursue his solo career and is currently working by himself. As for Rotten Earth, Jared is moved to lead guitar and the band presses on. Willie (manager and Underworld Productions) makes contact with Shiwistyle Productions out of Zuni NM and gets the band booked for the July 4th Freedom Run and Metal Jam at the Zuni Fair Grounds. Jared continues to come to practice with Justin with very serious intentions. Brad does not come to practice but says he will be ready. Willie calls Seth with a set play list and asks if he can be ready for the July 4th show, he says "I'll be there". The day before the show Jared has a change in family plans and can't make the show, Brad follows and he also doesn’t make the show. Our manager makes contact with T&M Music and gets the band invited to T&M Music’s 1st Annual Battle of the Bands in Window Rock AZ. The guys are asked again if they well be ready and they answer "YES". Just days before the Battle, Brad says he can't make the show due to his family situation at home to attend to with Jared following and they both don’t make the show. Two ROTTEN EARTH no shows cause tempers to flare from both manager and Justin, comments are made, causing Brad and Jared to quit, soon to reform the band HAVOC with Chad Mitchell on Rhythm Guitar and Eric Price on Drums. In the mean time ROTTEN EARTH is still booked with Capitol Alliance on August 25th for Among the Living in Kayenta AZ and with Billy Crawley II of Ethnic De Generation on September 1st for ETHNICOLOGY 07 in Kayenta AZ. At this point Raleigh rejoins the band and they sets their sights out for new replacements, with very little time. Our manager remembers INCIDE was in need of a drummer and guitarist and makes arraignments with Leslie Pablo and Montero Pablo for an audition for Justin and Raleigh. Things are working out for both groups. We had to drop out of Among the Living which was later reschedualed for a later date, but we will be performing on September 1st. with INCIDE at ETHICOLOGY 07. On September 15th, Raleigh had decided to return to ROTTEN EARTH and begin searching for replacements, leaving INCIDE without a rythme guitarist once again. Former guitarist Jared Earl has been invited to audition for INCIDE's rythme guitar spot at Justins request, Jared declines and INCIDE finds Joey Cauthen to fill the vacancy...LOOK FOR US IN A TOWN NEAR YOU!!! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT!!! AND WE WISH HAVOC ALL THE BEST AND HOPE TO SHARE THE SAME STAGE SOMEDAY!!! POSSIBLY "JawnstocK 08" ONLY TIME WILL TELL, UNTIL THEN, KEEP YOUR HORN HIGH, AND THE MUSIC LOUD!!!
