Combining melodic, female vocals over crunching metal guitars and smooth,dance floor electronics, Wreckcreation creates a sound all their own. Hailing from Charleroi, a small town south of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the quartet combines their various musical tastes, which include metal, industrial, funk, blues, classic rock, and hip hop, to create a unique blend unlike anything the steel city, or any other city for that matter, has ever heard before.



Wreckcreation was formed in 2000 when Josh Howell (bass/ programming) met Aric Armbruster (rhythm guitar). The duo began in Aric's basement, experimenting with combining simple sounds and riffs on a six string guitar and keyboard. It was decided that they would take a more electronic route with their music, using Aric's metal-influenced guitar riffs as a unique accent to various electronic elements.



Though Aric and Josh remained constant members, others rotated in and out of the band as guests. In 2005, Josh and Aric called upon Kirsten Evans (vocals/lyrics), a local singer that Aric had previously worked with on another project. The front-woman's melodic voice and formal musical training added a new perspective and musical element to the mix that had been previously missing. With these members finalized, they began to quickly churn out catchy, yet emotionally evocative songs that remain incomparable to others. In Fall 2008, Kirsten invited an old college buddy to jam with the band. Quickly, Tom Foley became the latest addition to Wreckcreation. Tom brought his heavy blues influences and intricate, wailing guitar solos to the sound of the band. The group’s eclectic influences, when combined with good songwriting and thoughtful lyrics, create an addictive, hybrid form of rock.



Wreckcreation is typically compared to Nine Inch Nails, Evanescence, Jakalope, Lacuna Coil, and Stabbing Westward, though no one can seem to place a finger on another band that creates the same sound and feel as the quartet.



While currently finishing their debut album, Monster In Me, Wreckcreation plays live in various venues for all types of audiences. Because of their mish mash of influences, their eclectic blend can be appreciated by both mainstream and various alternative audiences.



Wreckcreation plans to do exactly what their name implies. Expect this group to break down the walls of the music industry with their unique sound, and to blow away musical conformity. Creation was made to be wrecked!
