"There Was Still Something There..."
They say a second act is rare, but twenty years after playing their first notes together; a simply epic on stage implosion, and a mythical creature attack at sea--Survivors of The Kraken have just wrapped recording their debut record @subModern Audio in Providence, RI.
Talented, hungry, and musically adroit, high school mates Allan, Brian, and Justin honed their sound in the Southern New England music scene of the early '00s boasting a sound captivating enough top put them on stage along
side national [MUST] and regional [Monty ARE I ] acts alike.
Contemporaries of the pop/punk scene that would later explode in RI, their melodies were always a little bit out of place - with high school coming to end, the larger world outside RI beckoning; with venues shuttering in aftermath of The Station nightclub fire the trio embarked on different paths, projects and pursuits. Justin left Rhode Island to take up position at the head of the class --continuing to dabble in the singer/songwriter scene-- while Allan and Brian became one of the fiercest rhythm sections around eventually finding their home as the backbone of the Candice Brooks Band.
