An amalgam of all things New York, Desolate is a metal crossover outfit on a
mission to spread their brand. With their debut full length album entitled
"Fortitude", Desolate is known to engage in a rigid live performance
schedule. The band now looks to show the world its unyielding thirst to
deliver. Desolate is a five piece band from Washington Heights, New York
City. Formed in 2001 by founding members Jose Rivera (Vocals) and Jeff Martinez (Guitar),
Desolate has created a brutal collection of songs over the years and is
unleashing them through their current lineup that includes Sebastian Cruells(Drums), Leo
Mattei(Guitar)and Daniel Vargas (Bass). Desolate has since gone on to refine their musical
styling while maintaining their original identity.
“If you're ready for concrete riffs, red-faced vocals churning with hate, and an abominable rhythm section that will stomp a mudhole in you, these guys bring the goods”
- Mike S.OS
“Desolate puts on a hell of a live show and if they come my way I'll be there at the front of the stage with cocktail in hand and a neck brace waiting in the car for the ride home."> –MetalReview.com
"There's some real hard-hitting power behind these songs that really hold the flag of metal high - if I were to try and describe what I think the current sound of a HC/metal band should employ, Desolate has it and then some!"
-Chris Pratl midwestmetalmagazine.com
"These guys are pissed off about something and they let you know it. If you're looking for some aggressive music with a hardcore sensibility to it and a New York attitude, these guys are for you."
-www.rocknetwebzine.com
"Unadulterated, ass kicking Metal! One listen to this album(Fortitude)and you can tell these guys know and love what they do, they are very tight and have immense chops!"
-Jaymz L.I.R.
"With their mix of hardcore, metal and rock they have a lot to offer the tastes of today’s hard music fan. They are clearly staking their claim to be one of the top bands of the rising NYC heavy music scene." -Keith Chachkes
