In the great tradition of Rock and Roll, the members of Winter don't exactly always see eye to eye. Winter, auteur of the project band and Josh argue for the sake of arguement. If Winter argues the sky is blue, Josh will contend that it is in fact, yellow. This symbiotic clash results in a sonic orgy of pop punk psychadelia laden rock that is Winter. Only the Devil knows how they truly came about. The power duo was reformed from a previous incarnation over two years ago. They have since devoured their influences and regurgitated them back up in the solid cd's, "White God Machine" and "DECEIT." See www.musicwinter.com for more information. Based in Chicago and Detroit, Winter's music is ever-evolving. Winter had combined many different styles of music, from Sisters of Mercy to David Bowie. If you ask Winter, he will tell you that he wasn't born, he was willed into the world by the power of his own musical destiny. Asking MacWilliams results in the ordering of another beer. I will definitely say that Winter is a black tempest cyclone, who finally admitted his flaws to Josh a few weeks ago. The angst ridden sonic expletive that is Winter would like to say to everyone, that we really do not like your reality. The world is filled with nonsensical chaos that does not answer the simple question: why are we here? Well we have an answer, make music! As you can see, the simplest explanation helps cut it down to two little words: Winter Rocks.
You freakin' rock man!!! Love your music! Got to rock out to it while cooking in my kitchen! Would love to see you in concert! Keep me updated if you will!!!
