She Am Whore

Come again? What was that you said? You don’t give a fuck? Welcome to the party, pal.

Razor & Tie has revealed a new signing: a band called I Am War.

Who is I Am War? I’m not sure. But the band features Atreyu’s singer Alex Varkatzas and Bleeding Through frontman and gym rat Brandan Schieppati on guitar.

I Am War is said to be currently writing and demoing material for its debut album, which will be out this spring. That’s a mighty quick turnaround for a band that just started, apparently.

“Brandan and I are extremely happy to sign with Razor & Tie,” said Varkatzas. “We feel like they fully understand the musical intentions of I Am War, and we couldn’t be more excited about our future. I am personally looking forward to making the most extreme record I have ever been a part of.”

Hmm. So, its a Motionless in White cover band?

“We are looking forward to creating an album filled with super-aggressive, heavy, energetic metallic, raw, punky hardcore. The kind of music that boils your blood and inspires you to get up and move.”

Oh no. It’s worse…it’s going to sound like A Day To Remember. Just watch.
