deadsun

Deadsun is a four piece alternative metal band that explodes with energy and purpose. The music ranges from over the top aggressive to contemplative. The pounding rhythms and memorable hooks immediately grab your attention but it is the depth and intelligence of the songwriting that keep people coming back for more. In addition to the catchy songs, deadsun's live shows are volcanic, precise and exhilarating.

The story of deadsun begins in 1999 when drummer Adam "bandit" Hempseed and guitarist Rex Arthur met through a mutual friend. The three formed the band that eventually became deadsun.

In December of 2001, Hempseed and Arthur teamed up with singer Todd Cadorette. Dee Adman came on board after "Degenerate Matter" was recorded adding the percussive low-end tightness needed to push deadsun's live show over the top.

The band quickly developed an ultra-tight high-energy live show that reflects its member's enthusiasm and conviction. Rex adds, "Our goal, every time we play is to give every thing that is in us...to hold nothing back and to always leave the stage knowing we just gave the audience one hell of a show!"

After a year of playing gigs locally the band decided to go into the studio and record a demo. What started out as a demo evolved into the full length CD Degenerate Matter. The recording was done in Nashville, TN at The Track House and mixed at the Sound Kitchen. The CD was engineered and co-produced by Jim Lightman who had recorded everything from Hank III to Full Devil Jacket to India Arie.

Deadsun released their CD Degenerate Matter on March 6th of 2004 in front of a packed house at the Blue Sky Court in Nashville. Deadsun is playing shows regionally every weekend, creating quite a "buzz" and winning new fans in every city they visit.

Deadsun is currently in the process of assembling regional street teams to further expand their fan base. Ultimately, the goal of the band is Major Label release/distribution for their CD Degenerate Matter and to prominence on the international hard rock scene.

    author: deadsun fan

    This album is fantastic, definitely one of my favourite ever. I heard Stand For Nothing for free online and ever since then I wanted this album. It hasn't disappointed at all, highly recommended.

  • What a find!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    author: R.Burns

    I've been looking through CDBaby scouring for for some new unheard of stuff. I can't believe this, all my time has finally payed off. YOU GUYS F**KING ROCK. This is some for real shit. Good luck and hope you make it big.

  • These guys don't fuck around!!!!
    author: Jared H

    I wish I ran a record company. I would sign these guys up in a flash. KICK ASS!!Good lyrics, heavy guitar. If your lookin for some good bang your head shit, then this is it. My fav's are Hold Me Down, Happy Family, Cursed. And holy shit when Evilution gets going, it slams me to the floor!!!Great job on Get Up, Stand Up too.

  • love it
    author: Daniel Milligan

    I think the cd is in close comparison to Stone Sour's CD. It has some of the same musical elements, the singer has about the same voice...its very Stone Sour-esque. Anyway, Corey Taylor is one of the best singers out there and if Deadsun can keep it up they will go as far if not further than Slipknot or Stone Sour. I especially love Crucify and Drowning. I think that's it.

  • author: Brennan Lovely

    As a huge fan of bands like nothingface and Ill Nino, I'm a sucker for the combination of the scream with melodic and catchy choruses...deadsun perfects it on this album, but they've also got their own sound. either way it kicks ass! keep rockin!

  • One word .... Awesome!

  • London Calling
    author: Auntie Chrissie

    We-e-ll my dears, one of the upsides of having teenage kids is the great music you get to hear. Stand for Nothing should be blitzed out of loudspeakers at corporate dinners, & StandUp4YrRights, well, bless our little 1982 mohicans ..... must fly, dears - crocheting a banner for the Skullmuppet Fan Club. London Calling....

  • Just a few words...
    author: Alias: Gorgan

    I must say, that I do not usually enjoy this kind of music, as the yelling usually turns me away, but, you have something very unusual about your music that seems to keep me listening to it. I can't say that I dislike the music, but I just wish there was no screaming involved. But, I could just be getting old. :) Very good on the album.
