Suicide City

Suicide City is a punk rock band, consisting of vocalist/guitarist Billy Graziadei, vocalist Karl Bernholtz, drummer Danny Lamagna, guitarist AJ Marchetta and bassist Jennifer Arroyo. They released the EP "Not My Year"in 2005 themselves, selling 7000 copies without label support. They have also self-produced and released a live DVD, entitled ‘Live From CBGB.’ The band has toured with Otep, Taking Back Sunday, Gwar, Danzig, Life of Agony, Birthday Massacre, Mindless Self Indulgence, Despairs Ray, MXPX, and Mushroomhead. On August 4, 2009, Suicide City released their debut full-length effort, entitled ‘Frenzy,’ via Brooklyn label The End Records. “‘Frenzy’ is such an eclectic blend of music,” says Marchetta. “This band is unafraid and unapologetic about what we create, and because of that we have an album with a really wide musical landscape.” Graziadei points out, “In our short time together, Suicide City has achieved more on our own than most bands do in their whole career with the help of a label.” Benholtz described it thusly: “Suicide City thrives on making people happy and smile through our music without having to candy coat anything. Life does not ‘suck and then you die.’ Life is great, dangerous, exciting, strange, and then you die. I guess that’s what we’re trying to portray with our music.” Members Jennifer Arroyo (Ex Kittie) Billy Graziadei (Biohazard) AJ Marchetta Dan Lamagna Karl Bernholtz
