AN AMERICAN SHOOTOUT MYSPACE
With the goal to be melodic and meaningful in a genre now saturated with bands just worried about breakdowns and blast-beats, Fishers Indiana’s AN AMERICAN SHOOTOUT (formed in 2006) have everything going for them. Members come from two now-dysfunctional local bands, A Scarlet Destruction and Embrace the Dead. All being around 18 and under, they have played all over Indiana with some of the biggest national acts and they plan on going as far as then can.
Csongor Erdelyi (Guitar) adds intricate guitar work and tasteful soloing with the solid backing and melodies from Brad Sliga (Guitar) on guitar. Bassist Andrew Copeland (Bass Guitar) holds down the bottom end and brings much of the “punch” of the live sound while Zach Reed (Drums) ads more diversity to "AAS"'s style with his mix of traditional rock and metal drumming, and many hardcore elements added in. This is all topped off by vocalist Taylor Cox, with his wide range of metal and hardcore screams, and the addition of talking parts, which add depth and bring the lyrics to a more personal level. "AAS" is devoted to bringing something pure and meaningful, and to just be music that anyone, no matter what style of music they enjoy, can respect.
