MILLIONS

"Very loud, very chaotic, very abrasive. and very, very awesome."
-Alternative Press
"Millions evokes much of what was exciting about the Windy City in the late '80s and early '90s. Gnarly guitar work and bruising beats (think Jesus Lizard and Rapeman)."
-Revolver
"Millions debut full-length eviscerates much of the younger hardcore competition. A punishing record that packs an absolute ton into each song."
-Decibel
"Simply exceptional on every possible front. Mandatory listening."
-Lambgoat.com
"Millions look back to noise rock's mid-90s halcyon days, but Gather Scatter still feels like it's predicting the future."
-MetalSucks.net
Millions guitarists Scott Flaster and Corey Lyons are quarreling musical twins whose differences set the tension on which Millions' sound is based. Flaster and Lyons' dueling guitars create a codependent relationship of angst and grandeur - in a world where the neurotic impatience of Black Flag scrapes up against the anthemic melodies of King Crimson.



Driven by this tension, the sound of Millions is that of vicious mood swings. On Gather Scatter, Millions' debut full length (the Telephone Game EP was released in 2007 on Team Abunai Records), songs brood and boil, then erupt into manic fits, sometimes soaring toward light, sometimes crashing and burning. The pounding rhythm section of bassist Mark Konwinski and drummer Patrick O'Shea drives straight and steady through the storms.
Millions, having shared stages with Young Widows, Fight Amp, Tombs, Intronaut, and many more, spent 2009 trying to get as far away from Chicago as they could, ending the year with a one month tour, bringing their sonic antagonism to 10 different European countries.
