0 Comments

Grave Robber - CellarAfter a short break of about two months, horror punk band Grave Robber came in October of last year with the news that the band has returned. This year they will release every month a cover tune under the name of “The Cellar Sessions”. Below you can listen to the fourth song ‘You Don’t Mess Around With Jim’ (Tribute to Jim “Uncle Jim” Shepard)

The songs are also available for free download at the bands Noisetrade page.

Grave Robber comments: ‘Things you should know about these songs: 1) These are rough mixes we are doing our selves. 2) We have ZERO budget 3) We love our fans and that’s why we are giving these away for free! 4) The concept is to record songs you’d NEVER imagine Grave Robber covering! 5) We want you to enjoy these and don’t take it all too seriously!’

Shambling, unblinking, unthinking masses of the dead – looming forward with but on pressing, dominating goal; to devour your brain and absorb your essence. While Fort Wayne’s finest in horror punk have this goal of cranial domination in common with hordes of walking dead, they are anything but shambling or unthinking. Rip-roaring with the fury of a foam-mouthed and frothing werewolf, Grave Robber bring a unique, hardcore-tinted feel to their hard-hitting brand of horror punk that will make fans of aggressive punk from The Misfits to My Chemical Romance rejoice.

Hard at work horrifying the masses since 2005, Grave Robber have been anything but idle. Combining bouncy, catchy percussion with riffs and guitar solos as sharp as Dracula’s fangs, Grave Robber‘s rugged and raunchy releases – “Be Afraid” [2007], “Inner Sanctum” [2009], “Exhumed” [2010], and “You’re All Gonna Die” [2011]- have garnered these horror rockers well deserved press from acclaimed punk and metal outlets alike for a good reason. Each song by these prolific punks creates an immersive and haunting atmosphere that has listeners so engaged that they are constantly glancing over their shoulders wondering if Grave Robber is coming for them next.
