Win a free copy of “The Dead Dead: Infinite Superdoom”
by NashvilleStandUp.com on Aug.30, 2010, under contests, news
Like most great Metal bands, The Dead Dead was formed when two Nashville Comics, Charles Ives and Sean Parrott, moved into a duplex. (Duplexes are SO METAL!) Inspired by the prospect of riches, fame, and trashy women, they decided to record a heavy metal concept album telling the tale of two men’s trek to hold the unimaginable power of the black sword, Infinite Superdoom. A year and a half later, that album was born, with a totally evil cover by Todd Evans at Silverface Designs.
Unfortunately, two months ago, tragedy struck the band when Charles Ives was killed by Satan. According to a letter left by Satan, attached by a pitchfork to the duplex’s front door, Charles had to die because The Dead Dead had “become too evil.” Despite this loss, Sean Parrott has decided to continue the proud tradition of The Dead Dead, bringing heavy metal joy to the hearts of anyone with enough money to afford him and enough women to sate him.
The Dead Dead will be playing on September 6th at 6:30 PM at the open lot near Bongo Java – 107 S. 11th Street, East Nashville. Infinite Superdoom is available at shows for only 5 Dollars. It is also on iTunes and CDBABY.
