We are The Spectacle, a brand new type of metal band five piece, one with purpose and meaning. We blend a hybrid of Texas hardcore with a dash of melodic metal to create a monster of a sound. Be warned: we do not create music for the faint of heart. This is an explosion of sound. The band captured the anti-establishment ethos of punk with Learned Helplessness and is assaulting ears with jackhammer riffs via the twin guitar attack of The Adversary and The Divine. The Scandal’s distinctive bark commands your attention, while the rhythm section - The Idealist (drums) and The Consumerist (bass) - are locked arm-in-arm like the government and big business.
We are fueled by the hypocrisy that surrounds us and want the world to see that there is a choice; and that choice is not sitting in front of the box waiting for someone to change it for us. We are going to use the medium we know the best (music) to make sure our voice is heard. We are changing. Are you ready for us?
