Formed in late 2008 against the backdrop of Massachusetts’ Merrimack Valley, Age of End shapes a variety of genres into a rhythmically powerful and musically diverse sound.
Influences of Metal, Hardcore, and Hard Rock are scattered throughout the band’s independent debut album "The Rhythm of The Slaughter", released in January 2010. Recorded at Woodshop Recording Studios in Andover, MA with producer Charlie "Bunk" Borruso (Godsmack, Dogfight, Another Animal), the full length’s first single/b side, “Shattered/ BeLIEve,” received thousands of plays online before the band had ever even taken the stage.
To celebrate the release of the album, the band headlined their CD release party at Worcester, MA’s iconic The Palladium. Since then, "The Rhythm of the Slaughter" has been played on dozens of FM and Internet radio stations from coast to coast in the US., and in over 20 other countries (The UK, France, Poland, Estonia, The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Finland, Indonesia etc.) Age of End has been featured by close to a hundred publications, websites, blogs, etc. including AOL's Hard Rock/Metal blog, Noisecreep, Altsounds.com (UK), and in July '10, as a featured artist on Reverbnation.com. The band has also licensed it's music/likeness to dozens of media outlets to be featured in things like video games ("Play Live Play Loud" on NEGB1.com) and movies ("Blood was Everywhere" released independently in 2012).
Since their first show in July ‘09, Age of End has been given the opportunity to play with a wide variety of national acts including Shinedown, Puddle of Mudd, Killswitch Engage, Five Finger Death Punch, Papa Roach, Emmure, Sevendust, Nonpoint, Chevelle, Cold, Soulfly, 10 Years, Trivium, God Forbid, Unearth, Full Blown Chaos, Prong, and more. The band has also been a part of multiple festivals including WCYY’s “Oxxfest”, and WAAF’s “Indoor Beach Party”.
In The spring of 2012 the Age of End headed back into the studio to work on their second album "Torn and Severed", adding to the team legendary Mastering Engineer Jonathan Wyner (Nirvana, James Taylor, David Bowie, Aerosmith). Capitalizing on the recent buzz surrounding the band, AoE hurriedly released the album's first single "Souls to Bleed", on X107.5 fm Las Vegas in April 2012.
In February 2013, the band signed an exclusive management contract with The Inner Light agency, out of LA, and added Manager Damon Moreno and Booking agent Patty Seifert to the team. In April, the buzz generated from the band came to a head, when they took home the New England Music Award for Best Hardcore/Metal Act of 2012.
Currently balancing the recording process, with weekend tour dates throughout New England, Age of End is poised to take things to the next level.
