   About UNJUST (NEW CD OUT NOW)

Currently releasing their fourth recording themselves, Unjust have continued to musically develop into their own identity, further shedding any comparisons to their past cohorts and personal influences, yet retaining the core elements that have always identified the band. Evolution has taken a wonderful course with Unjust. As noted in the past, as a creative unit, musical growth is an integral part of a band's evolution; though it runs the risk of alienating fans and following, some of the better bands realize the greatest reward comes maintaining the band's soul, putting the music first, while taking full responsibility for whatever the outcome may be. With their newest release "To Lose A Name", Unjust is a wonderful example of this.

Hailing from the San Francisco East Bay , Unjust first entered the scene in 1999 with the release of their debut effort, "Thin Line Emotions". The album shared the Bay Area metal sound forged by the likes of Metallica, Machine Head, and Faith No More. The album was heavy and brooding; it was released on Dutch label Mascot Records, along with positive reviews across Europe including Kerrang! and Terrorizer. Unjust were also invited to play at the annual Dynamo Open Air Festival in Holland and have had successful shows in Alaska!!!

Their sophomore release followed in 2001, entitled "Makeshift Grey". With "Makeshift", Unjust started to come into their own and created a dark and gloomy metal atmosphere with songs like "Come Feel Me" and "Nylon". Not only did the band continue to solidify their standing in Europe through Mascot. The album also became an underground hit with Bay Area rock fans garnering the band interest from labels all over the world, as well as landing them a spot at The California Music Awards, sharing the stage with likes of Joe Satriani, and Papa Roach. Airplay and winning contests on San Francisco's Live 105 was the norm. It was also during this time that the band began to embark in a new direction, partially brought on with induction of new guitarist/songwriter Mikey Merino; in addition to their trademark riffage, their music began to mature.

The bands third release “Glow” in 2003 brought the band even more attention being picked up by Koolarrow Records, brain child of Faith No More bassist Billy Gould in 2004, garnering even more press, flooding the internet with features on websites like Shoutweb with good reviews on websites, and major rock and metal magazines all over the world. Glow songs have been successfully placed in Fox, MTV and VH1 television shows, as well as an AMP'd Mobile commercial.

Considering their East Bay metal roots, "To Lose A Name" is yet another very bold step into the musical future, even a progression beyond “Glow”. Once again, the Bay Area heavy influences are still there; but the emphasis on melody and songwriting again takes the group to another entirely different level with additional influences like Muse and Dredg. Nevertheless, not only have they managed to maintain the support of their early fans, but in fact have attracted scores of new ones, which makes "To Lose A Name" tasty new ear candy to new and original fans a like.

PRESS "Unjust are a band that are just dying to be heard. The guys bring a fresh sound to the saturated hard rock arena in a time where quite a few bands are afraid to take a step in any direction." Decoy Magazine Online

"It's really easy to listen to and just solid, solid musicWho said nu-metal is dead? Unjust is everything that is right about the genre, and hopefully will be one of the bands that lives through the aftermath of nu-metal's apparent fall I think it's safe to say 2004 will be an amazing year for Unjust. It's a shame I didn't get this CD until now, because it probably would have been amongst my top albums of 2003, but I guess I'll just have to consider it for one of my top albums of 2004 now. It's going to be a long year, so we'll see, but it's that good. Fans of bands like Finger Eleven, Cold and Machine Head will dig "Glow..." the undergroundscene.net

"Of course, through all this, Unjust is still Unjust on this disc, with their distinctive style (which is that strong Mendoza to Merino, vocal to guitar combinations) making this disc hum in so many places. These guys are not defined by total aggression anymore, basically bringing home a sound that bleeds musicianship all the way." Powerslave Magazine
