From deep between the hushed hilltops of West Virginia, comes a rag-tag trio of sharply dressed men with a predilection for volume and a passion for Rock & Roll.
The Demon Beat have been busy making craters in local bars, clubs, and basements- blowing minds and resurrecting a brand of musical honesty and aural aggression that has lain dormant for decades.
"I thought people forgot how to play Rock & Roll." -a sound guy at a barn (in reference to the Demon Beat's performance.)
The Demon Beat deliver a refreshingly taut mix of Jordan Hudkins' boisterous rhythms, the tenacious assault of Tucker Riggleman's gut-pummeling basslines, and the scathingly acerbic, yet thick and mellow guitar work of Adam Meisterhans- who delivers his vocals with the dry wit and literary prowess of a second-year English studies drop-out.

Need local Bands From Wheeling and Morgantown WV For Two nights Fun http://c2.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/69/l_1efd726236f54c0b96b8bf83b423958d.jpg
Saturday November 7 at The Vollrath Tavern, Indianapolis
With an assembly that includes members of Ministry (Warner Bros.) and Thrill Kill Kult (Rykodisc), it's obvious project .44 has a firm grasp on the aggro/industrial/tek metal scene. Hailing from the industrial/tek-metal capital of Chicago, where pioneers like Ministry paved the way for recent grads like Static-X, project .44 continues the tradition of Chicago's knack for mixing pulverizing guitar licks with catchy dance beats. It is the forging experience that Louis Svitek (Ministry) provides when laying down the tracks that the band transfers to the stage explicitly and explosively.
Also dance all night to resident DJs Copper Top, Zlaya, Krazy Karoline
Hey guys! I've started posting songs to The WV Scene Playlist, but need the help of all the WV Area bands to decide how the Playlists should be done. I'd really appreciate it if you took part in the poll I've posted on The WV Scene myspace page. After all this is a site meant to look after the best interests of the artists whether they be professional or just beginning. (Be sure to add our activity stream so that we can better communicate what it is we're trying to do).
Hey everyone! It's about time to post some of your tunes on The WV Scene Playlist... Until I come up with a better system I'll post the songs of the first ten bands who respond and I'm planning on including a wide variety of styles on the list. Thanks so much! (I won't be posting a song from my own band till later since this site isn't set up to promote my own self interests).

I heard you guys were rad on Sunday. I'm so sorry I was sick and couldn't make it out the last day. Thank you so much for helping make New Kind of Kick Fest such a success and we hope to work with you again soon.
Hey fellas...like I said on Sunday, your set was all aces! Great songs, great energy...even without vocals! Hope to see you again soon, and maybe get you a better slot at a Sidebar show!
Thanks for the add! I'm just beginning today, so I'll be posting some songs by local bands on a rotating weekly or monthly basis as soon as I get enough bands on my list... Thanks again!
