The Confession

Hard-rockin’ emo kidz from Orange State, the Confession reaches least just a little not the same as most metalcore serves of their own time and place, thanks a lot in large component to lead vocalist and lyricist Taylor Holland Armstrong’s clean, well-trained vocal design as well as the band’s flavor for old-fashioned extended guitar solos from the ’70s hard rock and roll stylebook. Armstrong and all of those other Confession — guitarists Kevin Fyfe and Jake Ortiz, bassist Matt Pauling, and drummer Jeff Veta — hail in the oceanside LA suburb of Dana Stage, where the music group produced in 2005 some of its associates had been still in senior high school. As the Confession was playing the neighborhood membership circuit, local-band-made-good Avenged Sevenfold find the youthful act to become their opening action for a thorough nationwide tour. This resulted in the Confession obtaining agreed upon to the Record Collection label, a faux-indie imprint bankrolled by Warner Brothers, which released the youthful band’s hastily documented debut EP in 2005. After further touring, including a stint in the 2006 Flavor of Chaos bundle tour, Ortiz was changed by brand-new guitarist Justin Norman. The Confession released their record Requiem, made by Avenged Sevenfold’s M. Shadows, in June 2007 through Research Information and spent the summertime in the Warped Tour.
