The Crimson Armada[RECORDING GUARDIANS IN 23 DAYS]

And so began A Filthy Addiction

About Me

1. We are a metal band.
2. Our music is for and by God. We hope that it has a positive influence and inspires others to learn something and get something out of it.
3. We love music and we love making it. We are going to always make music we love to make. End of story.
4. We are always going to try our hardest to comment back and always message back, no excuses. We WILL do what most bands fail to do, which is keep in touch with their fans individually. We are here for you guys.
5. We like to head bang, circle head bang, and anything that requires long hair moving really fast. We are fun guys and we really like to have a good time and just hang out. We try not to put ourselves out as the ones who are "too scary" to talk to. Feel free at ANY TIME (shows, myspace, etc) to talk to us with ANY questions you have. Rest assured that we WILL talk to you.
On another note...it needs to be answered as we get bombarded with this question daily:
ARE YOU GUYS A CHRISTIAN BAND??????
First off, how do you define a christian band? Is it Christians in a band? Is it a band playing music about Christianity? Is it Christians playing music about Christianity? We're not sure but there are Christians in this band. But more importantly there we are five dudes in this band who are very serious about their faith and want to let you know about it through both their music and our daily lives. So you can take that however you wish. We will not judge you and we ask that you do not judge us.
"Heavy Metal; a form of music that’s been around for decades. While some argue that Heavy Metal is a sacrilegious and blasphemous lifestyle expressed in the form of art; Westerville, Ohio’s The Crimson Armada have set out to prove otherwise. Starting in early 2007, The Crimson Armada came together to go beyond just playing metal by paying tribute to various forms of the heavy style combining their diverse influences and their spiritual messages encrypted within the lyrics. Something that fans who choose to look into the deeper meaning of the lyrics will find uplifting all whilst experiencing The Crimson Armada’s truly heavy style of playing.
Just months after landing their first show, a slot opening for Dead to Fall and As Blood Runs Black, The Crimson Armada kicked it into high gear by recording various demos and sharing the stage with acts such as The Black Dahlia Murder, Catherine, It Prevails, and playing various clubs in Ohio. Shows and recording came to a halt when the group announced a hiatus at the end of 2007 and a farewell show was put together.
After demands from various supporters of the band and the local music scene, The Crimson Armada decided to end their hiatus and announced their reformation and plans to record their first EP Behold the Architect (recorded with Bobby Leonard of Paper Tiger Studios in early 2008). A comeback/EP release show was booked in April of 2008 and the group was welcomed back to their city with open arms. “A day will come when the dead will rise up from the earth” howled vocalist Saud Ahmed quoting the track ‘Revelations’ off the band’s EP Behold the Architect. So is it coincidence or what lies ahead? Time for you to decide.
While many Metal and Death Metal bands of today have a strong focus on sacrilegious and blasphemous matters with an obsession for gore, The Crimson Armada look to be an exception to this rule. The Crimson Armada does this by promoting a positive spiritual message through their music and meaningful lyrics going beyond the trend of broken relationships or pure brutality. “The Crimson Armada is all about dudes just jamming, living a 100% substance free life, having a good time, and pizza. So come hang with us, eat some pizza, and check out some sick tunes.”
The Crimson Armada will spend November 2008 recording their Metal Blade Records debut at The Foundation in Connersville, Indiana. Expect a spring release with heavy touring leading up to and throughout the release of Guardians. The band’s local metal and hardcore station Radio U from Westerville Ohio will be announcing plenty of updates and info regarding The Crimson Armada and their upcoming release as well as tour dates. Fans who are not in the area can tune in via the stations site http://hxc.radiou.com/" .
