January 12, 2015, 9 years ago
Los Angeles-based industrial rockers Society 1 have officially announced their new guitarist - Alex Crescioni. Alex will be stepping in as a full-time member, while Sin Quirin departs on a worldwide tour with Ministry.
“I’m extremely honored to be a part of the Society 1 family," says Alex. “I looked up to them as a teen during the whole nu-metal phase with bands like Korn, Coal Chamber, Static-X, and Deftones. I’m truly grateful to share the stage with such professional and inspirational musicians.”Prior to joining the band, Alex produced, mixed, and mastered Society 1's latest single “It’s Yours Now” in 2014. “I was given a chance to really get to know the guys in the studio, while recording their latest effort, Rise From The Dead. We tracked ten songs live in an eight-hour session through a Neve 5088 console. The raw tracks came out fantastic. These guys are just as tight in the studio as they are live, and now I have the pleasure to join them on stage.”
Society 1 will be starting off the year at the Schecter Indie NAMM Party on January 23rd, performing alongside We Are The Riot (featuring Meegs Rascon and Mikey Cox of Coal Chamber). In addition, a new music video is scheduled to film this month for the track “Pain And Torture” off their new album, A Collection Of Lies. Lord Zane will be taking on directing duties yet again for the new video. The band will continue regional touring throughout the year to further promote the new album.
