Brain Banger

Formed in Louisville, Kentucky this three-piece have been playing together under various names and line-ups for several years until this one sunk in heavy. BRAIN BANGER features powerful vocals on top of tight bass/drum grooves and often ambient guitar riffs. They hail much of their influence from the early ‘90s Northwest while having severe growing pains to ‘70s punk and metal. Consisting of Nick Thieneman (YOUNG WIDOWS, BREATHER RESIST, BLACK CROSS, FOTOCRIME) on bass/vocals, Patrick Hume on guitar (knighted as one of many LORDS bassists), and Jeremy McMonigle (YOUNG WIDOWS) on drums, their sound has an originality in the tradition of bands from their hometown.
