Lies Beneath

Lies Beneath is a five-piece metal band with influences ranging from thrash, to death-metal and hardcore. With classic dual-guitar attack, a crushing rhythm section, dynamic vocals and brooding soundscapes, this band creates an undeniable presence and demands captivation from any audience. In 2005, the band began heavily gigging the underground Long Island metal scene, quickly gaining a dedicated following. In the Summer of 2006, the band set out to record their first effort entitled "The Eidolon," a self-released LP featuring titles like "Exposure," "Mind Inside The Massacre," and "Combat Ready." Upon the album’s release, Lies Beneath began experiencing new heights of popularity. An undeniable presence in the underground scene, they appeared at some of Long Island and NYC’s biggest clubs including Don Hills, The Knitting Factory, and The Crazy Donkey where they opened for Kittie and Walls of Jericho. In the Summer of 2007 the band completed the roster by adding lead singer Nick Serr. In addition to being guitarist Ben Serr’s brother, he is also the founding vocalist of the NY prog-metalcore band Engine, and brutal post-thrash group Resolution15. With the addition of Nick’s growls and soaring vocal lines, Lies Beneath was ready to unleash their crushing sound to new audiences. In September of 2007 Lies Beneath appeared at Locobazooka at the Tweeter Center in Mansfield, MA. Thousands of new fans caught a glimpse of some of the band's newest material when they shared the stage with Shadows Fall as they warmed up for Heaven and Hell, Alice Cooper, and Queensryche. With the help of producer Corey Unger, founder and guitarist of seminal New England hardcore legends Blood Has Been Shed, Lies Beneath recently released their new full-length album "Death of the American Dream" on July 2nd, 2011.
