CENTURY was originally conceived by one-time ArmsBendBack (Trustkill Records) guitarist/songwriter Carson Slovak as a solo studio recording. With the addition of Mike Giuliano (guitar), Josh Groah (bass) and Matt Smith (drums), what was once a project has evolved into an unrelenting machine of sonic annihilation. CENTURY¹s work ethic epitomizes DIY. Their records are completely produced, recorded, mixed and visually interpreted by the band. CENTURY even produced, shot and edited a music video for the first single off their debut full length completely by themselves.
The intensity captured on the Tribunal Records debut, Faith and Failure speaks for itself. CENTURY¹s devastating rhythms combined with angular guitar bursts and thick, growling bass provide a punishing backdrop to Slovak¹s throat ripping vocals. An exercise in progressive brutality, the effort mixes introspective lyrics with enormous metal grooves, atmospheric space rock and epic choruses. With numerous accomplishments already under their belt, CENTURY is poised to leave a wake of devoted followers as they move forward into what is undoubtedly a bright future. |
