In.Spite.Of
October 2003

in.spite.of is a band with a familiar -- yet uniquely identifiable -- sound that separates them from the sea of young new talent. Fronted by two singers, in.spite.of is a vocally driven band that breathes new life into, what is considered by most, a stifled period in alternative rock, a true diamond in the rough. Having put together a diverse musical style and a strong fan base, the band has caught the ears of some national touring acts. They have shared the stage with the likes of wazee favorites Incubus, System of a Down, Godsmack, Injected, and 2 Skinnee J's, to name a few.

In.spite.of has also been able to draw the attention of producer, Sal Villanueva whose credits include: Thursday's "War All The Time, "Full Collapse", "Waiting" and Taking Back Sunday's "Tell All Your Friends", to collaborate on some forthcoming recordings.

Credits for the band's upcoming EP "Metaphor" (available for download in the wmd!):
