RashXuberance
Description: RashXuberance was established in Detroit in 2001. The unadorned concept of meshing exclusive tones with down-to-earth pulsations brings forth what the City is renowned for - hard driving beats and smooth, hair-raising melodies - all with decisive presence. To complete the entourage, Martin recruited the high-revving, earthy vocalist and smooth persona which is Art McKinley. The kids then set their sights on world recognized bassist Gretchen Domino, thus folding their forte into RASHXUBERANCE. They were raised on the local music and metal that raced and ruled the streets of the world. The rest is waiting to be written.

The result is a dynamic mix of sight and sound.

Random Turmoil
Description: Once in a while the music scene spawns bastard sons of various genres into a powerhouse of unlimited potential and epic proportions with unforeseen visions and eccentricity. Formed in the spring of 2005 from a longtime vision of two high school classmates and friends, Random Turmoil is a Detroit rock band who makes their own rules. In an age when “metal” has become a swear word, Joe Szabelski (vocals, guitars), Ryan McArthur (guitars), and Ryan Guimond (drums) have taken the lost art of riff writing and made it accessible to the everyday listener as well as keeping fans of heavy music happy…with anger. With a background set in deep unbreakable roots planted back long ago in thrash metal and grunge, Szabelski and McArthur can’t deny their metal heritage and are the foundation of Random Turmoil’s distinct sound. Heavy/chunky guitar rhythms blanket the songs in many tempos reminiscent of thrash titans Megadeth and Metallica of yore. While at the same time, they are not afraid to use clean - bright acoustic guitars and effects layers with changes and ups and downs that break up the monotony that plague heavy bands in today’s scene. Vocally, Szabelski excels and capitalizes on pent up rage and takes listeners through a rollercoaster of emotions to deliver a range as smooth and broad as Chris Cornell, to Dave Mustaine snarls and the in your face style of Phil Anselmo. He has been described as “what Scott Weiland or Eddie Vedder would sound like if they were in a metal band.” McArthur - riff writer extraordinaire stands in front of a stack that belts out crisp rhythms that has been described as Corrosion of Conformity and compared to any of the bands on the much heralded Clash of The Titans tour of the ‘90s. Together with Szabelski's precision rhythm guitar parts and a sharing of the lead guitar duties, this combo is a force to be reckoned with. Ryan Guimond arrived on board in the summer of ’05 and adds a thick wall of quick, yet pulsating drum beats without the stereotypical fills the heavy rock community is accustomed to - yet somehow still maintaining aggression. With a background of jazz and a laundry list of multi-faceted influences from all musical backgrounds, Guimond has a sound all his own and has added his own flavor to all of Random Turmoil’s songs. Lyrically cynical, satirical, witty, at times politically charged, and always emotional, not many local bands can hold a candle to Random Turmoil’s thought provoking words and style. It is the name Random Turmoil that represents what life is all about in this world, and it sums up the music perfectly: angry, melancholy, sarcastic, tumultuous…Random Turmoil
