Comparing 3PieceUnit to the big boys (Sabbath, The Who, Zep) as far as unique sound, musicianship, timing and style. Quite a huge compliment to extend to an unknown band.
Pete Townsend called John Entwistle, Keith Moon and himself musical geniuses and called out Daltry as simply a singer. Sounds arrogant but true. I believe what 3PieceUnit does is similar. All equally as important to the band to define their sound and the methods in which they create songs. It’s truly amazing each time they get together. In my opinion, they are musical geniuses in their own respect and have created something completely original. The fact that vocals, guitar and drums are spontaneous each time is unbelievable. Listening to live Magic of Hatred, parts of the sped up No Messiah and Let it Go, give me the chills at certain parts of the songs where the timing of all 3 members is perfect and yet always un-rehearsed and spontaneously recorded.

Bio
3PU blends metal, early punk, hardcore and black metal with lyrical subject matter consisting of bizarre sexual fetishes, political corruption, greed, war, over indulgence and human betrayal. The story is....BigStick and G-String were in search of an outlet to capture their many years of jamming together. Mykil, a long time acquaintance and friend, offered to accommodate the noise making duo by lending his recording expertise and studio time. During the first studio session, Mykil asked G-String if he had written lyrics to include with the music that they were about to record. G-String broke out a file of lyrics and handed them over to Mykil. None of these lyrics had previously been put to music. Mykil, after reading several of the songs, was taken back as the lyrical content nearly matched his own writing style. Mykil then shared his lyrics with G-String, many which were written during Mykils service and deployment in the early nineties Gulf War. The feeling was mutual and a lyrical bond was formed between Mykil and G-String. Some of Mykil's lyrics had festered for years just waiting to come to fruition. G-String had written lyrics as early as 1989 and similarly Mykils as far back as 1993. The lyrics previously had no true home until 3PieceUnit's formation. Mykil asked if he could lay down vocal tracks during the jam session. On the fly. Selecting lyrics that fit the music. Both G-String and BigStick were flattered that Mykil would want to be a part of the project. The band was now officially formed and ready to release their energy of united sound. "Fallen" was the first of many 3PU creations. The 3PU recording method is completely unconventional. The 3PU tracks on this site are all unrehearsed, one take, live recordings. Guitar, drums and vocals are all volatile, passionate and gut wrenching emotions, fueled by a spontaneous energy that could never be duplicated during a multiple rehearsal process. Each band member is feeding off the others energy during the recording of each song. The impromptu recording method lends itself to all three members unselfishly contributing what skill they have to the final result. Each member appreciates the energy, time and contribution of the others. Three efforts that merge into one. Kind of like a 3-way. Music is ART.....Should be limitless and hold no boundries.
