The intimacy of folk, the voltage of Manowar, a hard rock band that drives a Heavy Metal Van through the Twilight Zone and parks it at Church.

Details:
Heavy, dark, and weird is the best way to describe this band from Athens, GA. Born and raised outside of Jackson, MS, Josh Wootton and Brent Blalock play hard and heavy rock that pushes the envelope of what is expected from a rock band. Their first album, âmarriageâ 2005 is cased in between two pieces of wood with a nut and bolt holding it together. Their second album, âIIâ 2008 is sewn into a quilted cloth envelope. Both unique and different, these albums showcase the bandâs desire to experiment with unconventional forms of rockânâroll as well as presentation. In 2008 MARRIAGE added a third member, a bassist/multi instrumentalist named Ted Kuhn. MARRIAGEâs third album, âEbenezerâ is due to come out in May of 2009 for digital download. This album showcases the newly formed power-trio as well as some more classic rock and classic metal influence. The mission: Glorify God Almighty, The medium: Heavy, Weird Rock nâ Roll.

"A loud, brutal ruckus...The arpeggios and quiet-loud-quiet(-loud again) sensibility of the band, as well as its ability to move together through complex changes had me hooked...The way they move together and the sensibility of their compositions, which moderate between time signatures and major and minor key more smoothly than most bands even aspire to, are nothing less than delicious brain candy."
