With their explosive stage show, their uncompromising confidence, and a sound described as "Journey meets Avenged Sevenfold, this 5 piece rock act from Johnson City, TN has been winning over audiences from Mississippi to Michigan. Produced by former Creed bassist Brett Hestla (Dark New Day, Framing Hanley, Tantric), their debut album 'Stick in the Eye' (2009) was an impressive start to what is shaping up to be an energetic adventure into active rock history. The album and impending tour with Saliva gained the band a rabid underground fan base, and spurred independent sales beyond 2500 copies from live shows alone in the first 4 months of its release.
After relentlessly touring the country, Star City Meltdown headed back to Florida in 2011, and back into Brett Hestla's studio to record their sophomore full length album. The album title changed from the original name, Razorblades & Handgrenades, to Music=War after the band departed from their record label in mid-2012. Music=War reflects on the constant battle the band faced just to get label support, a solid release date, and for the album to get to their fans in the form and fashion in which it was meant to be heard. Star City Meltdown decided to soldier up, after putting so much effort into a project that has gotten rave reviews from rock radio insiders, and they finally worked out an independent release date for Music=War, now set for Oct. 30, 2012. The first single,"Here's To Us!
