Since it's creation in the winter months of 2007 Ottawa, Ontario's Today I Caught the Plague has worked endlessly to produce the most honest representations of musical vision they're collectively capable of. The result: Energetic art reflective of a wide range of sonic expression. The songs are largely recognizable by the aggressive undertones of their hardcore and metal influences, while melodically and rhythmically balanced by the many varying genres which have impacted each individual artist. From the inspirations of early classical music through to the differing examples of today's modern art the group leaves no musical idea unentertained. Simply stated, they create only with self-set limitations, bringing their music through to conception with uninhibited thoughts.
The roster and consequent sound of Today I Caught the Plague consists of Dave Journeaux on Vocals, Ben Davis & Steve Rennie on guitar, Matt Young ..boards, Eric Stone on bass and Mike Ieradi on Drums. Friends and acquaintances before colleagues, the group shows a distinct sense of camaraderie in all their interactions both inside and outside the band.
In addition to their professional commitment to creating original music, Today I Caught the Plague strategically align themselves to infiltrate the scene with a constantly evolving stage show and the implementation of both researched and experienced knowledge regarding the inner workings of today's music industry. Their dedication is almost perverse in nature as the art form has quite literally become their hectic lives.
