Tim Smith-VOCALSTravis Williams-BASSToby Nickels-DRUMSEd Brongiel-LEAD GUITAR & VOCALS Kevin Nelson-LEAD GUITAR & Back up Vocals SMASH CORPS started out as a recording project. Most of us have known each other for years and have played in various bands together. When the recording was done we decided to see how it came across live. The response was overwhelming from new and old fans alike. We are now looking for a record deal and working on new material for the next recording. We have changed drummers for the new recording which will be titled Rotten to the Corps. You can find some of our videos as well as, new material, live at http://www.youtube.com/user/smashcorps We have opened for Joey Belladonna of Anthrax fame. That same evening Rebel Access TV filmed our show live for broadcast on local cable TV. We hosted the Soulfly after party at Capones. We have won Suburban Nightlife’s Best Heavy Rock Band for 2008. We have also played with Pro-pain and Sworn Enemy at the Pearl Room, and opened for Prime 55. ILLINOIS ENTERTAINER PREMEDITATED REVIEW For all you metal heads looking for some soul-stomping thunder, Smash Corps' Premeditated might be the album. They play a walloping metal style that might be generously described as Iron Maiden and latter-day Metallica fronted by Slayer's Tom Araya. From the brutal assault of "Greed" to the hard-driving riffs and wicked growls in "Climb," Smash Corps live up to their name. (www.myspace.com/smashcorps) – Patrick Conlan We would like to see Metal music unified instead of segregated. We bring touches of many different genres to the table when we play. You want speed we've got it, you want nu-metal it's here. Live we are multifaceted and always throw in a surprise.
