The five-man band, Vendetta Red, formed in Seattle Washington USA, around
1998 by friends, vocalist Zach Davidson, guitarist+keyboardist Erik Chapman,
guitarist Justin Cronk, bassist Mike Vermillion and drummer Joseph Lee
Childres.
The band soon began playing a kind of Punk-Rock and toured the West Coast
behind their self-financed debut EP "6 Kisses A Blatant Reminder
Of Why We Are Alive"; not long after they released an indie-album
called "Blackout Analysis".
In October 2001, the quintet issued "White Knuckled Substance"
on Loveless Records, a few months later, in early 2002, Vendetta Red was
picked up by Epic Records who opted to repackage it. The band spent the
rest of the year touring the U.K. with headline dates as well as several
shows in the States with Thrice, Andrew
W.K. and The Used.
The group's breakthrough album, "Between The Never And The Now",
arrived in June 2003, the CD debuted at #1 on Billboard's Top Heatseekers
and hit #101 on the Top 200 Albums chart; the lead single "Shatterday"
became an alt-Rock radio success peaking at #16 on The Modern Rock Tracks
chart.
Vendetta Red released its third album, "Sisters Of The Red Death",
in August 2005 prefaced by the single "Silhouette Serenade".
