March 25 – Athens, GR – Gagarin 205 Bassist Brian Cook, guitarist David Knudson, drummer Tim Latona, and vocalist Dave Verellen formed BOTCH in 1993, becoming one of the most ground-breaking and influential bands during a pivotal shift in heavy music. Their final show was June 15, 2002, the same day as the original release of An Anthology of Dead Ends. The members would go on to play in These Arms Are Snakes, Minus the Bear, and Russian Circles, among others, with acclaim for the band coming mostly post-breakup.
The band can also announce a re-mastered reissue of their final EP ‘An Anthology of Dead Ends’, out October 27th via Sargent House. Originally recorded in 2002, ‘An Anthology of Dead Ends’ serves as a swan song, sending off one of heavy music’s most inventive groups. Their monstrous concoction of metal, noise, indie rock guitar trickery, and depth is on full display. This is a last will and testament to the group’s drive and intent, cementing their legacy as one of the untouchable greats, already having influenced many a group and artist.
An Anthology of Dead Ends is available digitally and will see its vinyl release on October 27th, 2023 via Sargent House. Pre-order HERE.
