~~Swallowing the key of sanity, and wallowing in the repercussions.~~
Adopting their name from the 1942 film "The Corpse Vanishes," the Austin, Texas based horror punk/surf band, A Corpse Vanishes, drives utter terror into the daring at no expense to the band's humor. Their unique fusion of punk, surf and experimentation are suggestive of groups like Dead Kennedys, The Meteors and The Cramps. Reformed in the vibrant Austin punk scene in November 2007, ACV presents a world seen through the band's imagination with personal experience of loss and heartbreak (although mutated into a ultra-bizarre direction) and reflective of horror movies of old.
Meet the ACV family:
Ian E. (vocals/drums) initiated the band's inception in 2005. One of the city's most energetic and inspired drummers, he is renowned for his fiery delivery onstage. Where this ghost train's energy comes from? No one knows...
Jeremie "Jerms" Fletcher (vocals/guitar) shines with a hauntingly, angelic voice and powerful surf leads, only because it is her duty to entrance every last soul on the planet.
Christopher Horne II (vocals/bass) delivers booty bumpin' basslines and projects an adulterated voice of static and horror. Look closely into his mouth during a scream and you can see a lil' demon operating a mechanical Korean boy.
In March of 2009, the band went to Sweatbox Studios in Austin, TX to record the "Murder" EP, which was engineered by mastermind Mike Vasquez. Mike's clientele of recorded bands include- The Damnations, The Fleshtones, The Cynics, Knife in the Water, Riverboat Gamblers, The Crackpipes and hundreds more. A Corpse Vanishes were also featured on the "Blood Drive" compilation, organized by Ben Mclaughlin of The Belgraves and Winter Dance Party.
