Pop Evil

Passion. Dedication. Fortitude. Leigh Kakaty is the embodiment of these qualities, and for good measure, too. For two decades, he has needed to mine the deepest of reserves to drag Pop Evil up from the blue-collar grassroots of theband’s local Michigan scene to stand proud at the top of the modern rock game.

What Remains, the band’s eighth full-length album, is the culmination and story of thisjourney with Pop Evil, laid bare like never before.

We set out to push boundaries,” nods Kakaty. “Metal has always been a part of our DNA, but we’ve never made it such a focal point before. A lot of writing on this record has been about listening to what my soul is saying and letting the songs find their own path, rather than chasing a sound that might fit in on the radio. I think you can really hear the mood and emotion of the album’s themes in the music.”

“No matter how difficult the hard times you face are, what remains when you make it tothe other side is who you are, and it’s your story,” Kakaty says. “It’s not always going tobe written the way you want it to be, and it won’t always be pretty, but you hold thepower to define the next chapter.”

TBA

No, that's not the name of some new underground band.  That is "to be announced".  Pop Evil will be bringing someone with them.  When they get it locked in, we'll let you know who it is.

The Forty Twos

Opening the show will be our friends in The Forty Twos.  Ryan Housenga (vocals) and brother Adam Housenga (drums) have been on The Rust Belt stage before, and the energy they bring to start a party is always awesome.

With new members, Tico Nerval (bass) and Andre Miller (guitar), they'll be fired up to be back on stage and play you some new stuff and ones you know.
