BAND BIOGRAPHY
Shelflyfe, a 3-piece band from Rochester, NY have rolled out the
summer of 2009 with a bang! They have definitely come ready to
prove a great maturity with their new release “The Art of
Solitude.” Songwriter/frontman Gustavus Gricius has cultivated their sound and brought a new batch of fresh poppy hook-laden songs.
Rest assured that the songs still have Gustavus's very familiar
aggressive guitar attack, along with Amdrij's smooth bass and
Cole's pounding drums, but it definitely showcases a new maturity.
Kings of A&R accurately describes the band as “melodic-driven alternative rock with edge & pop sensibilities.”
Shelflyfe decided to work once again with Producers Tony
Gammalo (it dies today, chimaira, sw1tched) and Ben Schigel (drowning pool, breaking point, walls of jericho) at Spider Studios outside Cleveland, Ohio. The band spent January thru March recording
and working the new tracks and will be launching it May 22nd,
2009! Be prepared for a smoother sound with a lot more strings and piano. There is also a nice gem at 6 called “Memories Broken,”
which showcases just vocals, piano and cello!
The band has also definitely grown into their own, as they
have toured and played hundreds of shows, alongside bands like
Breaking Benjamin, Three Days Grace, P.O.D., Fuel, Egypt Central,
Flaw, Adema, Sw1tched, It Dies Today, Dope and many more. The
live show has gained serious attention with great light designs and
stage production! Gricius says “One thing that we always try to
remind ourselves of is that all of those people out there every show
are there spending their money to come share something with us,
and we owe it to them to rock as hard as we can!”
With renewed vigor, a hard work ethic, a love for what they do
and a powerhouse new album, look for Shelflyfe to explode this year!
Side note: Spider Studios is home to alumni like Drowning Pool (Windup), Allele (Corporate Punishment), Chimaira (Roadrunner), It Dies Today (Trustkill), Sw1tched (Immortal/Virgin), Breaking Point (Windup), Walls of Jericho (Trustkill) and many many more....

I'm going to NYC. Tattoo apprenticeship! =D That's when school starts again. =/ It's my brother's 16th birthday, otherwise I would go. I thought you would have but up This December. lol I love all the songs. Seriously.
You guys are going to be gone all summer after the 17! and I can't come. It's my last summer in Rochester, too! This sucks, cause then it's senior year. >=[
There will always come a time that will leave you starved, just downright HUNGRY for someone to break out of the ordinary and stand apart from the tainted world of music-making - But what, you might wonder, does it take to accomplish such a thing? Creativity, passion, a drive to succeed and a mentality that cannot be broken.
I can offer that to you; my sound is very refreshing.. But I won't throw myself in your face and demand things from you. If you like my material, then feel free to let me know and/or purchase my new mixtape (Infectious Culture) on iTunes, but do so on your own time. No rush. If you're not convinced, I also have two 100% FREE full-length mixtapes for you to download on my profile.
This is art, this is music. Check me out, and thank you for your time.
