Shunned "Promo 2007"
By: Paul Autry/BallBusterMUSIC.com
Plain and simple, Shunned is a metal band. While they're not breaking
any new ground here, it does sound like they're tryin' to put a few
cracks in the sidewalk. I only heard three tunes. So, I don't have much
to go by. But, they were kick ass tunes, especially the first one,
"Power To Abuse," which was the stand out track for me. They're good at
what they do and they have the potential to become a major force in the
heavy music scene. They just need to put out a full length release in
order to show the world what they can do. While it's enough to get your
point across, you can't conquer the world with three tunes. So, keep
your eyes on this band. In the long run...I'm sure they're gonna
deliver.

The live show sets Shunned apart due to the well rehearsed music, stage presence, and encouraging the audience to enjoy the music. Shunned does it's best to make sure the fans are given "props" and are acknowledged as the most important reason that Shunned keeps going. That along with a deep love for music and keeping it alive is what makes the band all that it is.
