PREDECESSOR WRITE | Rob Grissom The Cape Fear area bad boys of Predecessor have been through some lineup changes and the current incarnation is geared-up to take on the metal world. The powerful vocals of Kyle Watts, accompanied by Zach Rogers and Josh Snow on guitars, Chris Wood on bass, and McKenzie Bell pounding the skins launching these artists into the spotlight of the rejuvenated Wilmington metal scene. They released Learning to Suffer in 2010 and have not looked back. In 2012, Predecessor is offering a tease to the head bangers with the home recorded spectacular tracks of “Skin Deep” and “Bleed Out” and plan to release more as they are completed. Watt’s guttural vocal style blends perfectly with Rogers’ high volume aggressive chord progressions and meticulous structured arrangements. These musicians have what it takes to carry them far in the music industry. Be on the lookout for new tunes and turn the volume up to 11 and break off the knob. Check out their tunes on YouTube channel PredecessorBand or see them live when you can…they put on a helluva show! END
