15 times dead

Since 2004, 15 Times Dead have been a huge part of not just Glasgow, but Scotland's metal scene. Taking and integrating influences from across the spectrum of rock and metal to create their own sound and style, the band have come to be know for their love of huge riffs, with a heavy dose of groove, melody and aggression! Always priding themselves on their explosive and entertaining live performances wherever they play, the band have had the pleasure of sharing the stage with the likes of Blitzkrieg, Blaze Bayley, Sacred Reich, Beholder and Wolfsbane over the years. They also made their first festival appearance at Hard Rock Hell IV, sharing the stage with the likes of UFO, Uriah Heep, Skid Row, Helloween, Saxon, MSG, Airbourne and many more. In 2011 the band signed with Casket Records and a year later saw the release of their debut album, Metasultra. Following the album release, the band found themselves in a state of flux and lineup changes before the end of 2013 saw the present line-up come together to kickstart the band once again. In 2015, with a year of successful gigging and settling of the new lineup, 15 Times Dead are now writing their 2nd debut album to be released later this year, the combination of the new band members and swaps done within the band, has allowed 15 Times Dead to evolve into something more, bringing something a bit more dark to the table, more melodies and the blend between Scotti/Colin on Vocals brings a thick harmonies and aggression, as well as a fair bit of dirt which blends the vocals to the instruments very well.
