Knocked Loose

Bruised and bloodied, Knocked Loose opens up the pit using a brutal sound that falls between hardcore punk and metalcore. Led by screaming frontman Bryan Garris, the Oldham State, Kentucky quintet can be made up of guitarists Isaac Hale and Cole Crutchfield, bassist Kevin Otten, and drummer Dylan Isaacs. In 2011, Garris, Otten, and Hale became a member of with drummer Jared Barron (Concealer, Greyhaven) for an early on incarnation from the music group (a teenaged Garris honed his early vocal abilities by practicing in a variety of area rings with Barron). Afterwards, they enlisted Isaacs as long lasting drummer. Their initial EP, Pop Lifestyle, premiered on Little Center in 2014, quickly accompanied by a divide EP with Louisville quintet Broken Items. Knocked Loose’s debut LP found its way to 2016. Laugh Monitors (Pure Sound) debuted in the Billboard 200 and in the very best 50 on six different side charts.
