Last Tragedy shrugs convention at every step. Ask a dozen people to describe their sound and you'll get a dozen different answers. Some may tell you it's metal or progressive rock, others may say it's groove based or technical, catchy or obtuse. The only thing they will all agree on is that it‘s damn good. Formed in the shadow of a slaughter house in Greeley, Colorado, not an area known for an open minded outlook or a wealth of creativity, Last Tragedy’s reckless dedication to improvement sets them apart from the majority of bands and musicians not just in their home town, region and state, but anywhere you might look. They never settle and they are never satisfied. So far 2009 has brought the recording of their debut EP ‘IT HAD TO BE DONE’ and their victory in a battle of the bands consisting of nearly 150 bands, winning a short summer tour through the southwest states: New Mexico, Arizona, California and Nevada, with kick off and home coming shows in Colorado. But, in pure Last Tragedy style, they are eyeing well beyond the accomplishments the average band would be wallowing in. A professional sounding EP and mini-tour are just a good start to a band this driven. On the eve of the release of ‘IT HAD TO BE DONE’ and their first tour, the band plans their next steps. The full album, the longer tour, the next album… they will never settle, never rest, never stop.Last Tragedy is a juggernaut of sound. They have haunted the music scene in Colorado in one form or another for quite some time. Playing shows at the drop of a hat and never backing out of a set date kept them on the lips and in the minds of crowds and promoters through out the state, but only after a stable line up began to gel in 2007 that the band truly started to become more than the sum of its parts. Explosive rhythms under a twisted low end dual with driving melodies and intertwine together to create a perfect structural frame work for the harmonious paired vocalists. The ability to go from heartfelt to hate filled, alluring to abrasive, wondrous to wrathful all come quite natural to them as they sonically shift without effort, all the while retaining their genuine integrity. With fingers in the past and a hand stretching to the future Last Tragedy is a beast of a different breed, its wide reach shall cast a long shadow and cause many to follow in their wake.
