HUNG is a melodic/progressive death metal band based in New York City that transcends even its own musical definitions. Right off the bat, with its unusual line-up of electric violin and guitar switching off on leads, HUNG challenges the norm. Their music, epic in scope, moves fluently between brutal, aggressive riffs to eerily beautiful melodies to daredevil, virtuosic passages, all while maintaining its own distinct and cohesive sound.
Lyris Hung, the electric violinist, founded the band with guitarist Evil Jon and bassist Sam Roon, the two of whom had worked together previously in Masque of the Red Death. Moscow-born growler Dmitry Kostitsyn takes the frontman position.
Though the members of HUNG share a love of metal, they each come from a wide array of influences, ranging from classical to jazz and rock. They brought these musical experiences together, creating a sound that is at once paying homage to the masters of European death metal and strikingly different. Evil Jon, as the band’s primary songwriter, helps shape HUNG’s sound with a combination of melodic intricacy and technical fireworks.
HUNG has shared the stage with bands such as Full Blown Chaos, God Forbid, Macabre, Soilwork, Darkest Hour, Warblade and others. They have played the Milwaukee Metalfest and regularly tour New England and the NY/NJ/PA tri-state areas. In addition, they continue to actively vitalize the New York metal scene with HUNG Productions, their own event/show production company, and their partner site NYCMetal.com co-founded by bassist Sam Roon. HUNG proudly endorses Coffin Case, Cocaine Energy Drink and Ed Stone Clothing.
HUNG's second album, Progeny, was recorded by Eric Rachel (God Forbid, Symphony X, Black Dahlia Murder) and mastered by the legendary Alan Douches. With five tracks and a running time of almost 35 minutes, Progeny is at once concise in its storytelling and immense and dynamic in its range. From the opening title track, a piece which demonstrates the band's ability to weave intricate melodies and harmonies, to the Desert of Sad and Maria, a pair of dark and driven death metal anthems, to the twistedly militaristic Wishing Scar and the brutally epic finale Sediment of War, HUNG makes its mark on the metal scene – and it is a lasting one.

Perhaps you want to know something more about my person and my art-work: PranaBoy is an independent one-man company. Not profit-driven. Just for being myself. I'm an artist since 20 years, doing my own unique art, design and fashion. Since two years i'm trying to promote this special style via the internet, spreading some cosmic vibrations out to the world. I think myspace is a great place to find people, who are interested in some really special art works... this kind of Tee-Design is more...minimalistic symbolic communication without the borders of language... open minded expressions in an individual way of creativity...
So what do you think...please give me a little help: Comment on some of my designs here, would be great to know, what artworks are the most wanted.
Hey HUNG, I wanted to share this awesome email message that I got from a friend in Detroit about you guys>>>
Hey Lisa... What's up? Just wanted to tell ya...I listened to that Hung song on your page...they're fuckin good! I'm not impressed by very many bands to be honest with you...but they got my attention! I'll for sure be checking out more of their stuff! Just wanted ya to know... Those vocals are like early Grind Metal...like Carcass or something...I LOVE that kinda shit! It's just usually when bands vocals are like that, their music usually sucks balls! Well that's not the case with Hung... That's what I liked about them...Grind vocals and their music jams! Great Job to them!! Peace out, Ken
