Amongst Carrion
Amongst Carrion is a British metal band from Newport, South Wales. Formed in 2010, the band was founded as a Metal cover band. Originally they had a completely different line-up and the music was inspired by bands such as Metallica, Killswitch Engage, Lamb of God and many others. After many musician changes it has finally settled as this version of Amongst Carrion whose music is mainly influenced by bands like Parkway Drive, Miss May I, August Burns Red and Lamb of God. The current line-up features:
Lead guitarist Dan Coppuck (who is the founder of the band)
Vocalist AJ (a member since 2011)
James Hampson (Rhythm Guitarist since formation of band),
Dan Pugh (Bassist) and
Scott Waters (Drums).
The band have gigged in many places in South Wales, and have also travelled across the Severn Bridge, to play in Bristol, England showing that they are willing to break out of their local scene and travel to places around the UK. Currently the band are setting themselves up to record a 5 track EP. They are also looking to tour.
In November 2011, the band released their debut EP entitled ‘We That Should Not Be’ and along with it a music video. They are now looking to promote themselves in the live arena, and currently have a couple of weekend dates set up and are planning a full UK tour for the middle of 2012.
Amongst Carrion are a hardworking unit full of ambition, willing to do everything needed to achieve their goals. Unlike some bands they are out to gain a large and strong fan base and actually communicate with the fans they generate, making a good connection with their audience, via interaction, as well as through their music.
