"A blustery, hard-driving mix of Iggy Pop, MC5, and the Misfits..."

Faces of Damned grew out of years of late night shows with founders Anthony DiRosa and Andres Echenique. Anthony was the lead singer/guitarist for the punk and horror punk bands Plan 607 and Dead Holiday. Andres was bass player for Crankdaddy, a pop punk band. These bands were a key part of the punk scene in Syracuse in the early 2000s.

In late 2014, Andres and Anthony began collaborating on a new band, with a broader mix of influences, but still grounded in punk and hardcore. Joined by Idol Hands and Dead Holiday drummer Paul Barnes, the FOTD sound emerged: melodic, aggressive, and driving, but not limited by the three-chord basics of punk rock. FOTD delivers a mix of classic rock riffs, rhythmic diversity, and catchy choruses that has audiences banging their heads and singing along.
