Passion. Intensity. Drive. Showmanship. These are the things that can make or break a band, that can shoot them to top, or bring them crashing down. Trials of Innocence is five driven and passionate musicians bent on giving their audience the experience of a lifetime, whether it be at a live show or through one of their recordings, with one ultimate goal on their mind – bringing back music that means something to people. The music industry has been polluted with wannabes and has-beens doing whatever it takes to make a quick buck. The guys in Trials of Innocence have made it their personal mission to make music personal again, and bring their unique blend of metal to the masses. There is no real label for their sound; one has to hear it to experience it. With five different musicians all coming from different musical backgrounds, the variety of their tastes can be heard in the way they blend them all together in the writing process. With influences ranging from Rancid to Slipknot to Metallica to Stevie Ray Vaughn, Trials of Innocence is definitely a band to keep on your radar in the coming months. Fresh off recording their debut CD at Monument Music in Sheboygan, WI, look for Trials of Innocence to be invading your town soon. If you don’t see them coming around, be sure to drop them a line and request for them to come around.
