"EPOXY" The band mixes several styles of music
(metal, reggae, and punk) to obtain a new level of Aggressive
Rock never before heard by human ears. Influenced by musicians
from several eras and genres. "EPOXY" has definitely
created a sound of it's own. Start with two tough ass "lead"
singers, add the strength of a slap style bass, a "drop
D" guitar, and top it off with a mind blowing off-beat
double bass drum. These resins are creatively mixed to produce
the aggressive rock-"EPOXY"
Some of the band experiences include:
Celebrating a new sponsorship with Jagermeister. (June
2001)
