Band profile: An Endless Sporadic

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , on April 28, 2010 by cvalenzuela

The progressive rock band An Endless Sporadic was founded back in 2004 by two guys from Texas: 23-year-old drummer Andy Gentile and 22-year-old guitarist/keyboardist Zach Kamins.

Kamins, the cousin of Academy-award winning composer Howard Shore and a student at Berkelee College of Music in Boston, and Gentile, a game developer for Neversoft Entertainment, gained initial success in 2008 due to the release of their EP entitled “Ameliorate” which had featured tracks on the video games Tony Hawk’s American Wasteland, Guitar Hero III and Guitar Hero World Tour.

The duo have recently released their first full-length album entitled “An Endless Sporadic” with three of the CD’s tracks having been featured on Guitar Hero 5.

Fortunately for me, I have a semi-personal relationship with one of the bandmates, drummer Andy Gentile, as we used to play online games a lot together back in the day (I know, so nerdy). Because of this, he has kindly agreed to an interview about the success and future endeavors of his band.

The interview will be conducted and posted up real soon so stay tuned.

Oh, and for those of you who have played Guitar Hero and are unsure if you’ve ever heard of this band before, maybe this song will refresh your memory.
