   PLATE SIX: General Info
Member Since2/9/2005
Band Websiteplatesix.org
Band Members"Dimebag" Darryl Jacks, David Hickox, Brad Davis, and usually Jason Barker
InfluencesThe 10-year Treasury Note
Sounds Like"their passionate indie/hardcore is occasionally compelling"
   -Fake DIY

"'Battle Hymns For A New Republic' is a sort of prophetically titled work of massive proportions."
   -Toxic Pete

"These are songs that are gloriously off-kilter slices of alt-pop genius, the kind of stuff to lend itself to cult worship"
   -UK Music Search

"Plate Six aren't interesting in provided light and shade"
   -Rhythm & Booze

"Like their labelmates, the now defunct Hot Snakes, Plate Six play a diverse blend of post-hardcore, post-punk and indie-rock."
   -411 mania

"so intense at times as to get a bit claustrophobic"
   -Tasty Fanzine

"angular discordant riffs, wrenched vocals and a general defiance of accepted aesthetic norms – easy listening, they are not."
   -Penny Black Music

"If it weren't for the similarities between PLATE SIX and SPARTA, I may not have even got past the first track."
   -PastePunk

"Holed up in their rickety van, equipment in tow they weave from city to city to win over their crowds."
   -Subbacultcha

"Plate Six could be described as cutting edge and offering something different."
   -Full Frontal

"terminally geekish"
   -David Pollock/The Scotsman

"Dan Hickox"
   -Vanguard Online

"It is with some trepidation I put this on."
   -Rock-city.co.uk

"(an) unattractive trio from the deep south"
   -Sunday Times Magazine

"Steer clear if not."
   -The Citizen

"has to be one of the most difficult songs I've ever listened to."
   -Get Rady to Rock

Record LabelBent Rail Foundation / One Little Indian UK
Type of LabelIndie

Accelera Deck ?

Is that some kind of Magic: The Gathering reference?

My new band, when we're ready (by ready, i mean having songs we can play while drunk), we'll be hitting you guys up for b'ham shows. So.... don't forget about us. Or I'll triple-Dark Ritual and cast an indestructible Colossus of Sardia or some gay shit...

peace!

duddeezz. me and my friend tim hung out with you a few years ago when you played a show in knoxville tn, at the old city java, and you guys killllled it.

they're having a battle of the bands here in my town. there's not really going to be much going on, but you guys should come play. it'd be rad to see you guys again, and to hear the new tunes you guys have.

if you're interested, let me know what it'd take to get you all here. and i'll get you a date. i'm pretty sure it's june 30th, but don't hold me to that.
