"Crotch-splitting riff-rock with searing solos and nasty New York attitude."
REVOLVER MAGAZINE
"...a straightforward riff and groove-oriented rock outfit that flows
damn smoothly...gritty dirt under the fingernails rock with plenty of
soul..."
-Dave Brenner - 08.04
METAL MANIACS MAGAZINE
"SUPERVILLAIN's simple but pungent formula is well-crafted and
growing stronger. Bottom-heavy American rock...with a solid metal
backbone and roots in the NYHC scene...the band is here to stay...and I
say let 'er rip! Fans of BLS and the fuckin''Nuge listen up:
SUPERVILLAIN have something they want to show you."
-Dave Brenner - 09.05
METAL MANIACS MAGAZINE
"...a rockin' good time with elements of rock, metal and
darker-edged grunge packed nice 'n' tight. Pure energy! Crank
EARTHQUAKE MACHINE and grab some beers!"
-A. Bromley
UNRESTRAINED MAGAZINE
".. I dont care what genre you have locked yourself into or what click
you have established yourself with. This is a must F****** have!!!!!!!!!!!"

"SUPERVILLAIN come on with old school fury, shred solos in tact, over
the edge drum chops and undeniable rawk vocals. Think bar room rocking
on Friday night, and you're on the right track."
-JJ Koczan AQUARIAN MAGAZINE
"...a refreshing change from all the death/black demos that
assault my ears...SUPERVILLAIN delivers one CD that will remain in my
changer. Influences from Soundgarden, AC/DC and even Jackyl..just
enough of a familiar sound with a vibrant new energy. Definitley get a
hold of this CD."
-Richard Conner
EXPLICITLY INTENSE MAGAZINE
"SUPERVILLAIN, by far a great rock/metal band, based out of one of the
greatest cities in the world, is one of the tightest bands that I have
ever heard... If you are in the mood for a killer rock band, then be
sure to check them out..."
-Peter Kakouriotis AQUARIAN MAGAZINE
"These guys serve up some straight-up metal...this self-titled
EP abounds with fuzzy guitars & distortion, heavy bass grooves, and
first-rate drumwork... infused with a modern sense of aggression...the
prize here is singer Morgan Adams...his gritty tenor adds that
something extra that makes you sit up and take notice. With only five
songs on the album, I still found it difficult to choose a favorite.
These guys have come up with an album that, while contrary to what the
major labels have been feeding us as "metal", is bound to catch on and
turn some heads."
HARVESTMOONMUSIC 04.10.04
"Less than a year later, the band has released their
full-length album & hit the mark yet again. SV is firmly entrenched
in the dirty, sludgy rock...distorted riffs abound, serving as a
foundation for some fantastic solos & leads. Strengthening that
foundation is the superb skill of drummer Lou Gasparro... ('Drowning's)
spacey opening riff & plodding rhythm screams old-school
doom...twin guitar theme riffs enhance the atmopshere & reinforce
the feeling of a smoke-filled '70s jam. SUPERVILLAIN is a band that
knows just who they are & what they are about...In a scene where so
many bands are trying to be the next (insert major band name here),
SUPERVILLAIN is trying to put out the best rock music that they can,
and remain true to themselves. They've succeeded in both endeavors."
HARVESTMOONMUSIC 03.12.05
"I eagerly rip off the packaging and toss it in the CD player and am
suitably blown away!...Believe me when I tell you SUPERVILLAIN is for
real!...Get in on the ground floor, cause this band is going up!"
-Matt "Waspman" Marino
METALRULES.COM
"Tracks... sound like Savatage and Overkill and Tad all smashing each
others thigh bones into splinters with giant sledge hammers in the back
of COCs tour bus...Did I mention how crazy loud Earthquake Machine
is? Well, lets ask the cop thats at my door.
'Hi, copper. Nice weather this evening!', 'Hey, turn that fu*king thing
down, the neighbors think youre killing people over here.' Ha! Little
does he know. Anyway, SUPERVILLAIN. Crank city, Jack. Crank city."
SLEAZEGRINDER
"There is swagger in the step and a chip on the shoulder in the way
these guys bust out blues-inflected boogie...I mean, this stuff smokes,
snorts, flails, and wails! Were talkin the real deal here...I had a
great time blasting this one through the headphones of my portable CD
player and nodded so many times in approval that I got a kink in my
neck. Grab this bad boy... and rock the fu*k out!"
-Scott Alisoglu LIVE4METAL.COM
"...what we have is a band heavy enough for the true Hard-Rock
& Metal fans, but also not so harsh that they couldn't be played on
every FM station from coast to coast. This self-titled EP is sadly only
five songs long. I say sadly, because as soon as you really start
getting' into the groove, the damn thing's over! ...in my opinion, this
beats the hell out of that shitty Audioslave disc. This is solid
stuff...Supervillain should be a household name within the next year or
two."

+ URBAN ROOTS +
Born and bred in New York City, SUPERVILLAIN draw from a rich musical heritage, delivering a new brand of crushingly heavy rocknroll.
+ HYBRID SOUND +
From diverse backgrounds, members of SUPERVILLAIN
have street-cred to burn, combining killer musical instincts,
wide-ranging influences and a rare natural ability to collaborate.
Tripping from brutal to melodic, precision to psychedelia, SUPERVILLAIN tread the best of all possible worlds without skipping a beat, resulting in a hybrid sound heavier than the sum of it’s parts.
+ EARNED REPUTATION +
Formed by Morgan Adams and Luigi Gasparro, performances as early as 1996 quickly earned SV a reputation as force to be reckoned with, evolving through several guitar/bass line-ups until 2003 saw the release of a SELF-TITLED 6-SONG EP to unanimously positive reviews. 2005 brought the release of ’EARTHQUAKE MACHINE’, a 10-song LP which has received equally positive acclaim across the board.
+ DYNAMIC NEW LEVEL +
Line-up changes in 2004/05 which introduced guitarists Blue Wilding and Rocket to the group, along with the recent addition of Fernando Rosario on bass, have taken the established SV-sound to a new level of intensity, dynamic and focus. SV has spent the past 10 months writing and refining material for a 2nd full-length, tentatively titled, ’Dreaming Gods’ and are currently in the studio for a Spring 2007 release.
+ STAGE READY + SV BRING IT TO YOU! One of the hardest-working bands you will ever meet, SUPERVILLAIN is a truly independent band, ready to rock any size stage in any city! If you support independent musicanship, you support SV .
