12 Ton Sledge Press Release
In 2007 12 Ton Sledge decided to take a badly needed break. Sadly for all of
us, Scott has decided to step away from the band for personal reasons. (It's
because raising your children IS more important than just about anything!) The
rest of the band have decided to hang the name up and start another project and
will continue to evolve into another chapter with a new name and direction. That
new name is
Fall of the Curtain (www.myspace.com/FalloftheCurtain) and there will be a
new vocal direction as it could never be 12 Ton Sledge without our singer,
bandmate, brother and voice of 12 Ton Sledge. We wish you and your family the
best. Brothers forever!
VOCALISTS TAKE HEED
We are the remaining four of the band 12 Ton Sledge. We are starting a new project
from scratch and are in need of a vocalist. This means we will NOT be playing any
12 Ton Sledge material in this project and we are musically moving in a different
direction than we were in 12 Ton. We know what we are looking for in a person to
fill the vox position, and if you DON'T meet our requirements, PLEASE don't waste
our time and we won't waste yours. If you DO meet these requirements, then send us
an email and lets talk metal....check us out at

WHAT WE NEED OF A PERSON
1. You must be at least 21 and preferably not older than 35.
2. You must have reliable transportation.
3. You must be willing to practice (with band) at least 2 times a week.
4. You must at least have a microphone, a PA would be good, but not required.
5. You must have a PRO-attitude. This means you must be a responsible person,
can work well with others, etc., and in general be very serious about this project.
6. You must be willing to put $41 a month towards jam room rent.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR IN A VOCALIST
1. Singer AND a frontman.
2. Heavy, aggressive, guttural vocals with multi-range/style capabilities. This
means we are NOT looking for STRAIGHT UP death, grindcore, hardcore, screamer, etc..
We want someone with capabilities of all these styles or more. NO EMO. Someone
with knowledge of music theory and is a real singer is preferred, but not required.
3. We want someone who can write their own lyrics, BUT is willing to accept ideas
and sometimes whole songs from others in the band. We want everyone to be happy
with what they are doing, for their part of the whole, but creativity and songwriting
comes first with no ego's attached.
