Horrible Idea
Demitri
There is a long description of the way this band formed but we won't go in to it because frankly that kind of shit is boring and in this case it's Craigslist. Yes, that's right, Craigslist. Told you.
Reynaldo Santiago-Parra and Andy McGraw are the real reason this is even happening. For a long year the two wrote a 5 song demo. About a year after finishing the demo and a few vocal auditions later the two musicians found what they were looking for in Jimmy Baldwin. The former vocalist for the Atlanta experimental metal band Lazer/Wulf had been itching to perform again and joined the project.
After recording some of the vocals for the demo the three soon focused their attention on finding a capable drummer. Guess where they found him...that's right, Craigslist.
Shannon (former drummer for the popular Christian death-coreband 1000 Times
Repent) got in contact with Jimmy via email and soon set up a day to meet. Tracks were sent over the interwebs to Shannon so he could prepare and become familiar with the material and soon killed the audition.
Soon after they're first show they brought back Dustin Burke. Dustin helped start Demitri back in the early days and is a perfect fit. It's now the five piece band that it always should have been.
From Spring of 2015 to present day they have been writing new material and getting all the kinks out. Sweating their asses off in an Alpharetta warehouse and becoming one as a unit. The hard work, sweat, sacrificed family time and focus was all worth it and it makes for some pretty interesting music.
