    Artist description
    Despite what their name implies, Misled Soul is wasting no time or direction breaking into the Albuquerque music scene. Making their debut in August of 2002, the group has become a regular crowd-draw for several local venues. A combination of crushing, stuttering riffs and infectious melodies, Misled Soul is quickly making themselves an act to be respected. Their songs boast catchy hooks and raw, heavy metal that is guaranteed to appeal beyond the local ears of New Mexico. Anthony Romero, a self-taught musician and songwriter, has been playing bass guitar in the ABQ music scene since 1994. He has played in such bands as Kaotic State and 2Faced, the latter having opened for major acts at the Launchpad. During his time in 2Faced, he met Eric Blaz and the two went on to create their current band. When you listen to Misled Soul, you feel the bass pound out vicious riffs and hold strong melodies. Drummer Paul Martinez is also an ABQ native. After becoming friends with Eric & Anthony’s previous band 2Faced, Paul was recruited on the drums. Cranking out steady grooves and chops on his 4-piece drum kit, Paul is the backbone of Misled Soul’s head-banging and fist-shaking groove. Recording artist Eric Blaz hails from Detroit, MI, and fronts Misled Soul with his natural stage charisma and piercing vocals. Eric left his previous band 2Faced to pursue several other musical efforts. His other works include his industrial/electronica project: Skit-Zo, his hip-hop release: Eric Blaz: Eb=mc2, and current metal band Misled Soul, all recorded and produced by his own record label: BlaZ’D Records. As the primary lyricist for the band, Eric often works his own social and religious critique into his lyrics. His commentary about modern society may leave you questioning whether you are the one being misled. Guitarist and songwriter Matthew Morris is the newest member of Misled Soul. After fronting his New England rock band Dr. Catharsis for 3 years, he relocated to ABQ and was involved in several previous bands, including the short-lived but volatile psychobilly band The Wreckoning. Matt’s playing mixes several different contemporary metal styles, ranging from heavy chords and precision speed-picking to raw noise and feedback.
