If it's really working on "Constructing An Empire" (as the title of its newest single implies), this Modesto thrash-metal sextet has a lot of other would be conquerors to contend with in the central valley. but with ferocious growls, and crunching drums and guitar lines, this band might just have the right blend of hardcore and pop appeal to pull it off. POTA consists of: Nick Swisegood (vocals), Alex Leslie (bass), Aaron Weimer(guitar), David DeLaRoca (guitar),Jeff Thorkelson (keys) and David Stump(drums).

Hey guys sorry about that comment I posted earlier about how I thought y'all were Christians until I heard 1 of u cuss....I could have used a better choice of words than what I said. What I meant by that was swearing can destroy your witness. I don't know if thats any better but I strongly believe its true. Sure thats just MY opinion but ya know bands witness through their music. And if they sing "O I LOVE JESUS" and then get off stage and start cussing like a sailor...then many people will get confused as to what a Christian really is.
I really am sorry if I'm coming on too strong and I'm sure u don't want to here it from some punk kid but it's actually very true.
God bless u all and ur future
Ty
PS....Don't worry about the other bands that call themselves "Christian" especially if they're becoming a stumbling block in your walk with Christ. Just show them the Light if not through your actions then definitly through your words.
Alright!!!!
It really sucks that ur breaking up cuz I especially loved the way you sound. But don't ever give up on God. He'd never give up on You
that sucks you guys are breaking up =[ im glad i got your new songs tho, theyre great, and i cant believe i was able to see you in fresno too, that was awesome!
