Ten Plagues
Posted: April 23, 2014 | | Comments are off for this post.
SLC sure isn’t hurting for some quality metal and one of its finest providers is Ten Plagues, a 5-piece metal band hailing from Kearns, UT that pummels your eardrums like they hit on your little sister.
Long time friends Brandon and Dallin had been in bands together before but severed their ties to move forward with a new group and their buddy Preston. After scouring the ends of the Earth, they filled in the missing pieces (bass and guitar) with Chase and Victor and the rest is history. Ok, a short history since they’ve been a band for about a year but a history nonetheless.
The band writes songs about topics varying from everyday experiences to things they’ve read and even good, old fashioned violence in general. Their song “Beneath The Floorboards,” is based on the famous Edgar Allen Poe story, “The Tell Tale Heart.”
Ten Plagues won the first round of the battle of the bands and is looking forward to round 2 sometime in March. To tide themselves over, they’re currently working on their debut EP; recording with Stetson “Bucket” Whitworth at High Vibe Recordings. Keep a sharp eye for the EP in the coming months.
Current Lineup:
Preston (Drums) – Is best friends with his dog
Brandon (Guitar) – Is Navajo
Chase (Guitar) – Will eat cereal and watch cartoons until he dies
Victor (Bass) – Plays baseball on his school team
Dallin (Vocals) – Lives in a log cabin
