Available October 30th on Standby Records
Formed at the end of 2009 by guitarist Justin Sobota, ALONG CAME A SPIDER has spent the last few years developing a lineup that featured the talent at each position in the band needed to reach further than the small confines of the Ohio metal community.
Like so many bands signed to Standby Records, CEO Neil Sheehan was drawn to the band not only by their brilliant sound which has been compared to acts like A Day To Remember, In Fear And Faith and Bless The Fall, but also to the band's proven drive to succeed in a business that has gobbled up and spit out so many other bands of lesser work ethic. "ALONG CAME A SPIDER get it," states Standby Records CEO Neil Sheehan. "This is a band that understands that the songs are only one piece of the puzzle, but that the work they will have to do will make the difference between their success and failure."
Clearly the band has already proven that kind of work ethic. They have self funded everything in their career to this point, including two tours and the recording of their soon to be released album If We Were Normal Men. Regarding the title of the new album, it has significance to the band's members, who named the album to indicate the band's feeling about their desire and skills. Today the artwork and tracklisting for If We Were Normal Men has been revealed.
If We Were Normal Men was recorded, engineered and mixed by producer Don DeBiase, who is best known for his work with bands like Modern Day Escape. Recorded with DeBiase at Studio D Productions in Cleveland, the big sound captured by ALONG CAME A SPIDER was another reason Sheehan wanted to add the band to the Standby Records roster.
