Biography

Some would think we are cursed... in a matter of a year and a half we have gone through more things than most veteran bands. Bad blood with ex-members, record contracts gone wrong, cancelled tours and injuries that almost threatened the existence of the group.

Splenetic gained their fans through their energetic live shows and adrenaline pumping metal. They played all through the Midwest with bands such as Bleed the Sky (Nuclear Blast Records), VAST (Elektra Records), Kill Franklyn and Trippin Default just to name a few. They have grazed the stage in clubs such as The Ranch Bowl (Omaha, NE), Transmission Gallery (Chicago, IL) and have headlined many shows in the area of their home town of Sioux City, Iowa.

At the root, Splenetic is an old school metal group with new influences and styles of playing. Their music drives and their lyrics speak. Not many groups play with the speed and technical approach that Splenetic brings to the stage. Speedy and melodic guitar solos, jazz influenced and metal soaked drumming, thumping bass lines that push a groove over the top and aggressive vocals with a no holds bar attitude. Splenetic has been to hell and back and only time will show how much more damage they can inflict.
