Repentance, who feature ex-Broken Hope, Dirge Within, etc. guitarist Shaun Glass alongside guitarist Markus Johansson (4Arm, etc.), drummer Anthony Lien (Blue Felix) and bassist Mike Sylvester, have revealed their frontman. The group have been joined by controversial vocalist Robby J. Fonts of Stuck Mojo fame. Fonts commented:
“It’s crazy how things happen. I was looking to start a new band since Rich [Ward] and Frank [Fontsere] are currently busy outside of Stuck Mojo [touring with Fozzy], so the timing for Repentance came perfectly. It was Nonpoint’s drummer, Robb Rivera that introduced me to Shaun. One phone call later, we were stoked to get this show on the road. Shaun sent me demos, I wrote lyrics and vocals and our songs started coming together quickly.”

Glass added:
“The band’s sound is definitely very aggressive, pummeling metal and we can’t wait to share some music with everyone soon. Everyone is bringing their own style to the table, and the uniqueness of each is helping to shape our sound. All that said, we’re all on the same page in terms of the musical direction that we’re headed. ‘Don’t play metal if you ain’t metal!’ We’re creating a style that we enjoy ourselves first and foremost.”
As previously reported, the band will make their live debut opening for Trivium and Toothgrinder at The Forge In Joliet, IL on May 23rd.
