Hailing from Los Angeles, California, Phathom-Matthew Sikora (Vocals, Guitar), Jason Stone (Guitar, Vocals), Yannick d’Assignies (Bass, Vocals) and Anton Tilgren (Drums) have been rocking the Los Angeles music scene since 2001. Since the band’s formation and in the spirit of DIY Phathom has remained independent of any record label aid and currently resides with Hardline Entertainment under the management of Ken Seaton.
Independently, Phathom has toured the US extensively with the Vans Warped Tour ‘06 being invited back by Warped Tour promoter Kevin Lyman through Warped ’08 and looking forward to a stint of dates on the ’09 trek. They have performed with Avenged Sevenfold, Strung Out, Unwritten Law, No Use For A Name and also had local radio success with their single “Moving Slowly” on KROQ's Locals Only in Los Angeles.
Phathom to date has self released 4 EP’s and 2 full lengths (“Phathom” and “Zombie Love”) under Hardline Entertainment. Currently the band is recording new material for a massive online campaign where the band will give away 2 new songs each month as free downloads. The first 2 songs, scheduled for a June release, produced by Charlie Paulson of Goldfinger/Black President and co-produced and recorded by Mike Sutherland (Pennywise, Slightly Stoopid, Pepper, Heaven and Hell as well as Phathom’s “Zombie Love”). The online campaign will have the support of Rockstar Energy Drink’s site www.RockStar69.com and www.Gibson.com who will also be posting the songs for free download.
In support of the release the band will be playing extensively around the West Coast giving away limited CD versions of the new material, as well as allowing mailing list members access to the songs 1 week before the general public. Fans of the band will be encouraged to bring memory sticks to the shows where band members will upload songs from any release at the fans request.
It's been a while, and we are sorry for that, but we want to know what is new with you! We love talking to all of our friends and gettingto know you. The more we know about you, we feel we can help you more. Come talk to us and get to know us. We are kind of fun.
We can't wait to hear from you. Do you have any upcoming shows in our area? What about any new songs, albums, any thing along those lines?
I'm looking for bands to play at The Blue Cafe(s) for every night of the week and select saturdays at the Puka Bar in Long Beach. You can refer to my booking blogs for what is available or send over a message of what sounds good and I can shoot over some dates for you. Hope to hear from you soon -Amy
