Biography
Crushing. Unrelenting. Brutal. These are but a handful of the words that come to mind when listening to Long Island powerhouse SOWN IN TEARS. Formed in 2005, SOWN IN TEARS have been laying waste to listeners and venues alike across the United States with their abrasive mix of metal and hardcore. In early 2008, SOWN IN TEARS released their full-length debut, “A NEW HOPE” (recorded and produced by Tomas Constanza at Killingsworth Studios), on the unsuspecting metal community. The results have sent shockwaves throughout the metal and hardcore scene alike. This past spring, the band decided to part ways with original vocalist Peter Catalano due to personal differences. Matty Lippl, formerly of SIEGE OF AMIDA/FERRET RECORDS recording artists THE PARTISAN TURBINE stepped up to fill in the spot, bringing in a solid stance to the band‘s sound and lineup. Having honed their energetic live show to perfection by sharing the stage with international recording artists such as THE ACACIA STRAIN, WHITECHAPEL, EMMURE, SUICIDE SILENCE, BURY YOUR DEAD and more, the band went on to complete a successful East-Coast tour. Upon returning, the band caught the eye of LAST RESORT RECORDS and were signed shortly thereafter. The band are currently heading back to the studio to re-master their devastating debut “A NEW HOPE”, as well as record two brand-new bonus tracks with new vocalist Matty Lippl. “A NEW HOPE” is currently available on iTunes for digital purchase, and the reissue will be available in the none-too-distant future both online and in select stores.
