About Deaf By Arms (Debut on S.B.S. Records Coming Soon)
The original lineup of D.B.A came about in May of 2004 (pretty much we finally got a solid drummer). We previously consisted of SUGARBALLS (Vocals, Visual Arts), SODA (Vocals, Cheerleading), RAY ZEN (Guitar, Vocals), SLEAZY C (Bass, Vocals), and last but definitely not least MISS HELL (Drums). Our good friend Miss Hell left the band in May 2008 for personal reasons. We will miss her and are infinitely grateful to have been able to make music with her. Nevertheless, we have added longtime friend and drummaniac, Mentor's own NICK NASTY to shore up the rhythm section. Our existence lies on pretty much one fact-we will play any show, any time. Our sound is constantly evolving and incorporating different sounds that we find and love.
We are at least a part of 4 releases as of now, and are currently working on a debut full-length.
The four current releases are:
-"March of the Disposable Humans" 5 Song EP, 2004 Red Room Records.
-"The Necker Cube, Volume 1: Hip-Hop from Another Perspective" compilation, 2007 on La Rock Inc Records (myspace.com/larockincrecords). Intro to "Who Needs California When You've Got Ohio?"
-"Hard Times in Cleveland" Compilation, 2008 Spitfire Saloon, on which you can find the "Cleveland" demo.
-"The Necker Cube 2" Compilation, 2008 on La Rock Inc Records, on which you can find "Sleazy's Cut f. Johnny La Rock & Mush Mouth".
-"Makeshifting the Arts" debut full-length, due out late 2008 - early 2009 on La Rock Inc Records.
