Metal Jacket:
A VETERAN 5 PIECE POWERHOUSE OUT OF NEW YORK, METAL JACKET, BEGAN IN 2021 OUT OF THE ABYSS OF WHAT WAS A GLOBAL PANDEMIC. FOUNDING MEMBER TOM TULLOTA BEGAN WRITING NEW MATERIAL DURING THE LOCKDOWN WITH NO MUSICAL DIRECTION, OR EVEN A BAND IN MIND. WITH A MOST NATURAL AND HEARTFELT APPROACH, IT QUICKLY BECAME CLEAR THAT HIS ORGANIC COLLECTION OF NEW SONGS WAS QUICKLY BECOMING SOMETHING SPECIAL. THIS EXCEPTIONAL NEW BODY OF WORK COMBINED TECHNICAL INNOVATION WITH A STRONG COMMITMENT TO ITS VINTAGE ROOTS RESULTING IN A SOUND THAT IS AS FRESH AND BOLD, AS IT IS REVERENTIAL. WITH EARLY INFLUENCES OF TRADITIONAL HEAVY METAL, THRASH AND CLASSIC ROCK, METAL JACKET COMBINES SOPHISTICATED ARRANGEMENTS WITH A GEAR GRINDING ATTACK AIMED AT SATISFYING THE NEWEST OF HEADBANGERS AND HARDCORE PURISTS ALIKE. THIS EXCITING NEW SOUND WOULD REQUIRE THE RECRUITMENT OF A SICKLY TALENTED VETERAN LINE UP POISED TO TAKE AIM AT THE METAL LANDSCAPE.
JOINING TULLOTTA TO HELP COMPLETE HIS VISION ARE:
JIMMY GIBBONS (INSULT II INJURY), A VOCALIST WHO’S RANGE CAN PULL FROM THE DEPTH OF DEATH METAL TO THE SWEET SOUNDS OF GOSPEL.
SCOTT (AKA SCOTTYMAC) MCALOON (HELLBOUND), BULLDOZING HIS BRONX BASSLINES THROUGH THE BOTTOM END OF THINGS.
ANTHONY NARVAEZ (CONSUME THE SUN) LENDING HIS STYLISTIC SHREDDING PROWESS TO THE MIX.
AJ SPINELLI (LOST LEGACY) COMPLETING THE PUZZLE WITH HIS PUNISHING DRUMMING STYLE.
COLLECTIVELY, THEIR COMBINED EXPERIENCE STRETCHES ACROSS THE GLOBE WITH COLLABO RATIONS THAT SPAN FROM THE RANKS OF THE UNDERGROUND TO THE DOWNRIGHT LEGEND ARY. NOW FULLY ARMED WITH A PRODIGIOUS LINEUP OF ALL STARS AND SET AGAINST TOM’S TECHNICALLY MELODIC CANVAS, METAL JACKET IS READY TO RESURRECT CLASSIC METAL VIBES BRINGING FRESH, NEW ENERGY TO HEAVY MUSIC.
