The Innocent

As grinding death metal reemerges, thrash metal makes an exciting comeback and the trendy also-rans of the last few years deservedly fall out of favor, it's time for skillful fretwork, mature song-craft and breathtaking musicianship altogether to conquer to take its rightful place once again. It is time for The Innocent.



Vocalist Brandan Schieppati (Bleeding Through), drummer Brooks Wackerman (Bad Religion, Tenacious D, ex-Suicidal Tendencies), guitar player Dave Nassie (No Use For A Name, ex-Infectious Grooves) and bass player Ryan Sinn (ex-The Distillers) have joined forces, united by their shared love of the power of heavy metal, under the banner of The Innocent and are preparing to lay waste to any preconceived notions about the unlikely combination of heroes from the divergent Ozzfest, Warped Tour and rock n' roll worlds.



Boasting an arsenal of a handful of songs crafted together in the evening hours in Orange County when their other projects have allowed a break from touring or recording here and there, The Innocent is ready to show its collective face and make its presence known as a force unto itself beyond its collective members resumes.



Get ready to hear great things from The Innocent in months to come.
