Artist description
UNROUND writes music that is heavy, intricately woven and will make your head spin! Complicated odd-timed beats and polyrythms give Unround's orchestrated metal it's unique feel. Standard mediocre songwritng "rules" are completely disregarded, as Unround goes for the throat! ADAM LEWIS' vocal gymnastics, as limbre as a yogi-contortionist, soar along the buzzing melodies of guitarist DOUG KESSLER and 8-string bassist ROB KAMEN, while drummer MARK ACHABAL pounds out machine gun-like beats that leave audiences riddled with bullets! BEWARE:One listen is not enough! UNROUND weaves many mysteries into their puzzling lyrics and music, for you to enjoy solving. In fact, each song takes them, at the very least, a month to prepare for their listeners. This is no "power pop", this is UNROUND! |

Artist History
Evolving from a popular New York City band with a unique flair for pioneering music named TOASTED FISHERMEN, guitarist DOUG KESSLER and bassist ROB KAMEN joined forces with drummer of extreme talent MARK ACHABAL (ex-OVERKILL, WARRIOR SOUL, WARLOCK)and began writing songs for their fans instrementally as "INSTRO-METAL". They were unique because these songs didn't insult your intellegence by repeating themselves over and over, round and round and round again. Therefore, they coined the term UNROUND to describe themselves. After 80 or so auditions for vocalists from all walks of life, they finally met ADAM LEWIS, who had just moved into town, and not a moment too late. UNROUND had finally found a lead vocalist/ frontman as unique and daring as themselves. UNROUND has since disbanded, but their legend remains. Due to popular demand, we have set up this webpage with the help of our friends at MP3.com so you, the fans, could still enjoy the mysteries of UNROUND music. So instant play a couple of songs! If you like what you hear, why not buy a DAM CD. We're keeping the prices reasonable for you. We also encourage you to e-mail us with your feedback. There are even a few UNROUND t-shirts remaining, if you care to inquire about those. We will be adding more music periodically, since UNROUND had the forethought of recording everything they ever did!THE LEGEND LIVES ON! |
