One in Vain combines classic New England hardcore
with modern and traditional metal overtones
and brings an exciting and energetic sound to the music scene.
Consisting of J Norstrom (vocals), Tony Caddigan (guitars), Joe Infantino (bass), and Derek Smith (Drums),
they signed to Screaming Ferret Wreckords LLC in December of 2007.
The band hails from Ayer/Littleton Massachusetts and was formed in 2006.
Jay, Tony, and Joe are childhood friends
and have been playing together in bands since 1999.
This long-term alliance is reflected in the bands technical expertise on
their new CD Broken and during their live performances.
They have played many of the
renowned Boston & New England venues such as
The Worcester Palladium,
The Avalon Ballroom,
The Paradise,
Mark's Rock Club,
and
Bills Bar.
Opening for such acts as
Drowning Pool,
Powerman 5000,
Seemless,
Dope,
Otep,
Cage 9,
Diecast,
The Exies,
In This Moment,
Rotting Christ
and
Immolation.
Concert promoter and manager Bernnie Goulet of
New England Music Management, recalls the first time seeing One In Vain:
“One In Vain is a band that instantly captured my attention at a show.
Their intensity as well as their music is something that
demanded not only my attention, but the crowd's.
Since working with them over the past year,
the band's music and live show has matured incredibly fast propelling them forward as one of the premier hardcore bands in the Northeast region.
I’m excited to see their debut CD scheduled for the fall.
I can only expect great things from this band."
Screaming Ferret Wreckords CEO, Tim Koukos,
equally impressed with the production of Broken:
“Tony Caddigan (the bands guitarist)
tracked, mixed, produced and mastered Broken himself.
Being a sound engineer myself, I’m always a bit skeptical
when a band member takes control of a project as such.
When I heard the CD for the first time I was blown away!
The production is smoking!
I feel that Tony is one of a new bread of up and coming
Producer/Engineers in this genre
and would highly recommend him to anyone.”
