An elastic metal unit based out of Long Beach, California who produce a modern rock radio-ready blend of nu/alt-metal, greasepaint-heavy horrorcore, and groove-laden, melodic hard rock,
Sunflower Dead bring the evil, but they're more
Kiss than
Marilyn Manson. Formed in 2012 around the talents of vocalist/accordionist Michael Del Pizzo, lead guitarist Jaboo (Two Hit Creeper), guitarist Jamie Teissiere (
Droid), bassist Leighton "Lats" Kearns (
Memento), and drummer Jimmy Schultz (
In This Moment), the band issued its mythology-driven, eponymous debut album in 2012 via Bloody Bat Records. Their sophomore outing, 2015's It's Time to Get Weird, was produced by
Dave Fortman (
Evanescence,
Slipknot,
Godsmack), and featured a guest appearance by
Korn vocalist
Jonathan Davis. ~ James Christopher Monger
