"3 Headed Monster came into existence in 2001 (albeit under the name
"Baptismal By Fire" that was later dropped for not being as cool as 3
Headed Monster) after the four child hood friends(Chris, Chris, Paul
and Andy) decided that it was time to put aside their friendship... and
start a band. So away they went on their merry way writing such early
3HM classics as "Bitter End" and "The Beast of Odo Island". At some
point they collectively said "hey, you notice how we don't have a
singer? No? Oh… well, we don't… but it's ok, cause it's cool!" and so
the decision to be an instrumental power/thrash/death/prog/heavy/true
metal band was made just like that.
With that out of the way, the band started playing show after
show and gained a cult following in the New England area based on their
crazy live antics and songs filled to the brim with guitar shred. They
would eventually release the now sold out/out of print EP "All Out
Attack!!", share the stage with acts like Gary Hoey and Sonata Arctica
and have their music used by various independent wrestling promotions
across the country.
Through their instrumental songs 3 Headed Monster still manage
tackle serious issues like giant monster movies and professional
wrestling which apparently has touched peoples hearts… or something…
and lead to a sort of cross over appeal in the United States that most
metal bands don't usually have. Serious subject matter aside, the main
appeal of 3HM lies in their ability to write enjoyable instrumental
metal songs, the dual guitar shred of Chris and Chris and the dangerous
and dastardly (but never dainty) rhythm section of Paul(Bass) and
Andy(Drums).
Style wise, 3 Headed Monster can't seem to settle on just one
style with songs that run the gambit from pure power metal, to thrash,
to prog, to death metal, to everything in between. It's not being
indecisive, it's liking a bit of everything and not being afraid to
combine those styles rather then feel forced to write a certain way. It
keeps life exciting anyway.
Despite the whole "not having a singer" thing and playing a
style that is rather overlooked in America, 3 Headed Monster have
stayed true to their style over the past 5 years and never paid any
attention to those dweebs who tried to say that true metal bands were a
thing of the past. All the light heartedness aside, the band is quite
serious about the music they like and the music they write and that's
why they've started to gain some notice and that's why they are going
to continue to gain notice. Moral of the story: 3 Headed Monster is
here to stay."
