At No End rose from the streets of Cleveland in January 2004 with the meeting of Jack Sabolich (vocals) and Tommy Packard (guitar) through a mutual friend. During that first meeting the vision for the band was set; create a unique brand of metal laced with rhythmic hooks and a hardcore work ethic, mentality, and attitude. That vision helped them to rise within both the Cleveland hardcore and metal scenes and foster a reputation as one of the hardest working bands on the scene. The intensity of the music along with the high-energy live performances earned them opening slots for many of the metal and hardcore greats from all over the globe. After just three short months of shows at such legendary Cleveland venues like Peabody’s Downunder, The Cleveland Agora, and The Plain Dealer Pavilion, At No End caught the eye of Steve Felton (aka Skinny) from Mushroomhead who agreed to record a 5-song demo for them. In June of 2004, At No End entered Filthy Hands Studios to lay down five tracks that would pave the way for what was to come.
With demo in hand, At No End pushed their boundaries even further, gaining radio play, live performances, and on-air interviews on both college and commercial stations throughout northeast Ohio. While local radio helped to further increase the Cleveland fan base, taking the show out on a regional level proved that success could be had outside of northeast Ohio. Consistently traveling to the smaller towns that most bands would ignore, At No End began to develop a loyal fan base throughout the state proving that the hardcore mentality exists all over, regardless of population. It was this support from radio and the drive to blatantly self promote outside of northeast Ohio that landed At No End in the pages of the Garry Sharpe-Young book New Wave Of American Heavy Metal.
October 2005 saw the addition of Don Forrester on bass and backing vocals helping to further solidify the band mentally and musically and make them a tighter unit than ever before. After a few headlining shows introducing the new lineup and new material, it was time to record their long anticipated first full-length release. At No End entered Conquistador Studios in January 2006 to team up with Cole Martinez (Years Of Fire) to co-produce nine tracks that were to become the self released Building The Rebellion.
Released in July 2006, Building The Rebellion captured the raw aggression of their live shows, while lyrically defining what the band was about. While touching on such issues as the taking away of personal freedoms, war, and just the everyday struggles and injustices that the common person faces; it is the fight, determination and perseverance needed to turn those struggles into personal triumphs that is the main focus. With the support of the local radio stations and an increasing fan base, Building The Rebellion earned At No End a nomination for the Cleveland Free Times Music Award for Best Metal Band of 2006.
In March of 2007, drummer Kenny Easterly departed to join Gizmachi and the seat on the throne was quickly filled by Steve Shalaty (Immolation). At No End had managed once again to withstand a lineup change and continued to press forward.
After a brief year with Steve manning the kit and working on new material, Summer of 2008 saw the return of Kenny Easterly on drums. The time was now right to finally lay down all the new material and get ready for their next full-length release, Urban Holocaust. Recording is set to begin late Summer 2008 at Smiley Sounds Studio with producer/guitarist Curran Murphy (H.A.T.E., Annihilator, Nevermore). This promises to be the heaviest release the band has done to date, hands down! Keep a lookout for the Urban Holocaust coming late 2008!

Hey, just an update on our progress in getting metal bands in Ohio and the surrounding states to come together. We are at over 190 local bands and growing. People are leaving comments and participating in our band of the week blogs. We would like to officially thank the bands for showing some love for the music by helping us spread the word of BlackTie. We appreciate each and every one of you and thats why we are fighting so hard for your cause. We can promote other shows and anything else any other promoter can do but that's not our #1 concern. We are striving for an annual metal coalition, where all the bands come together and party together and get to know one another. You never know what another band can do for you. Don't burn bridges. The fact is that bands are coming to shows only if they play and leave when they are done, taking their crowd with them. I just want to know, how fuckn busy is their day that they cant stay and support each other. This is what is creating the animosity that surrounds the metal scene. Support other bands and they will support you. You all have the same mentality, that's why you play the music.
BAND OF THE WEEK Our band of the week blog is where we randomly pick a band from our list, play their song and make a blog about them. We go through the trouble, so you should at least show eachother that you are in this together. Every Sunday the band changes. This week is Ipekak and next week is anyone's guess. But we usually pick a band that is actually participating, hint hint. Thanx once more for reading my damn book.
