I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace) "There are things known and there are things unknown and in between is The Unreal" ..
Hailing from different areas around the metro Atlanta area, The Unreal, contrary to their name, is about as real as they come. Pulling no punches and plugging no stops, The Unreal's music is something akin to being on a rollercoaster that you just KNOW will be jumping off the rails at any given moment.
In other words, The Unreal's music never ceases to keep you guessing what will happen next. One minute you're floating in a raft on a quiet montain stream, the next you're plunging over Niagra Falls without the good fortune of a barrel, then coming to a stop in a cave that is actually a bear's den. With a potent mix of not only heavier genres, but also a wide array of other influences as well, with everyhting ranging from jazz to metal to a dash of hip-hop to keep you on your toes. In short, if you haven't had the deliciously dark pleasure of seeing them live yet, then GET ON IT!
And when you do, keep the lights on or you might miss something........or maybe you should turn the lights OFF........only The Unreal can tell you.......

What's up S.M.I. Friends and Family, We are excited to have been chosen to advance in the Project Independent National Metal Showcase. Now, we need your help to continue. Beginning December 1st, a online voting competition on www. projectindependent. net will determine which bands will advance for an opportunity to become the Featured Artist for 2009. The Featured Artist receives a 60 day national tour, $5,000, CD manufacturing, custom merchandise from Rocky Mountain Hardcore, free gear and tech support, and more! These are all things that S.M.I. needs greatly. So, help us advance everyday in December. Tell everyone you know about this. Let's show the world what three crazy southern boys from the Mountains of Northwest Georgia can accomplish with a little help. This IS a popularity contest, and we are going to be facing off against a lot of really good bands from larger cities. So, we are at a disadvantage. But, with your help we can win.
