Few bands can turn adversity on its head the way Misery Signals has. Following the departure of founding vocalist, Jesse Zaraska, the band rebounded in style by finding the perfect replacement in Karl Schubach. Schubach was part of an open audition that had hopefuls recording their vocals on an instrumental track available on their myspace page. The fact that Schubach is a guitarist by trade and has never sang in a band before makes the story even more remarkable. Commenting on the new guy, guitarist Ryan Morgan comments "Karl has a monstrous voice perfect for what people have enjoyed from the band in the past." Re-loaded, the band hit the Cleveland recording studio of Producer Ben Schigel (Chimaira, ZAO) for a month this spring recording their second full-length Mirrors to be released this August on Ferret Music. The band is crafting an album which they claim is even heavier than their celebrated debut Of Malice And The Magnum Heart, but ... more atmospheric and ambient as well.

Before Zao took the stage, the crowd was able to take a short needed breather considering Misery Signals’ set rendered the audience breathless. After the take five was over, Pennsylvania’s faith-based band Zao hit the stage. Zao is currently touring in support of their latest album, The Funeral Of God off Ferret records. Like their label mates Misery Signals, Zao have earned their title as one of today’s most unheralded bands in hardcore. Forming in the mid nineties and amid a plethora of lineup changes, the band’s heavy brand of music has remained popular amongst hardcore fans. They have a very dedicated and loyal fan base.

With thunderous bass lines, apocalyptic pacing and a vocal attack that would make The Haunted stand up and take notice, Misery Signals certainly are riding a very close line to metal with Of Malice. Factoring in that these boys are steadfast punk/hardcore kids, it’s no wonder the album has been stuck with the typical metalcore tag.
