Six Years Dead and it's members have performed with:
Six Years Dead began in 2003/2004 with only two members Rodney and Jason. The two brothers started out writing original songs and lyrics, eventually performing these songs with the music pre-recorded and a theatrical flare. All the while looking for talented musicians to amp up the live performance. Soon after playing OKC's Bricktown live in 2004 Ernold, Sean and Spoon all became a part of the 6.Y.D. family. Now writing and performing original new and older songs the band has created a serious sound all thier own.
In the past members have played in a wide range of bands including;
INTESTINAL DISORDER
SCARRED
THUMP 101
LOST RITUAL
REDUCE2NUTHING
SIX YEARS DEAD and it's members have played with the likes of TYPE O NEGATIVE, GOD FORBID, ACID BATH, PUNGENT STENCH, M.O.D., LIFE OF AGONY, MUSHROOMHEAD, DOPE, JACKNIFE, CRISIS, GOAT WHORE and many more national and international acts, not to mention the many more to come. Six Years Dead has also played with many killer respected local acts...Days Of Grey, Severence, War Of The Mind, Disjointed, Exalta to name a few. 6.Y.D. has been honored to share the stage with many talented musicians and are grateful to be a part of todays heavy music scene!
Six Years Dead's style definitely cannot be catagorized under any one style of rock. The band has many songs in which you can hear influences of heavy rock, hip-hop, metal, jazz and even a bit of classical. The tight knit group of childhood friends, musical talent, and drive become a perfect mix for success.
hey! we are trying to change something... our new singer erik can't be a full member of dreamscape because the stess to travel a lot is affecting his health. so we decided to work with more than one singer - honestly we will work with even more than two... hopefully you will like that idea! we like it a lot because we will be very flexible and our sound will become even more complex! kind regards! DREAMSCAPE (progressive metal from germany) (new cd november 2009! - buy or let die!)
PS: always believe in your dreams! and don't get frightened if they are becoming real! - because for a believer they will!
I just wanted to stop by to say hello and give you a little update on what Blood Root Mother is up to! We will be recording an EP of new music in August, and we recently finished recording a live DVD. The DVD is currently unreleased and I actually just saw it for the first time yesterday. It features the last two performances with Tony Ellis still alive, and some footage from the tribute show we played on the night of his funeral.
There are some cool covers, as well as some NEW music that will be on our upcoming EP. We're very excited about the new music and we'd like to share a sneak peak with you. Here's a link to the video for a new tune called Run Bobby Run:
