Brooklyn’s orchestral post-metal outfit, So Hideous, was formed in 2008.

Founded by Brandon Cruz (guitar), his intent was to score soundtracks to films that have yet to be made and cites Arvo Part, Ennio Morricone and Beethoven as his main influences. After many lineup changes, Brandon eventually enlisted his brother Chris (bass/vocals) and childhood friends Etienne Vazquez (guitar) and Danny Moncada (drums) to round out the group.
