====================================================
Fun Facts:
1. We love to call our fans and crowd the swarm on and off the stage.
2. We actually got to hang out and interview Kurt from crowbar before sound check which was a huge highlight of our 2022 year.
3. A lot of inspiration for our riffs and songs comes from the alien movie franchise and video games.
4. Along with a lot of pre-show rituals we have Jordan eats candy, Johnny listens to old-school metal, and Chris moshes to other bands and drinks with the fans.
5. Chris tries at every show to buy a shirt from the other bands that we play with to wear on stage at other shows.
Former scientists Chris Trainor, Jordan McKenzie, and Johnny Mejia were previously employed by Sub-atomic Weight of Acceleration Research Mechanics or S.W.A.R.M. While working on a project involving particle collision the team inadvertently tore open a brief doorway to the mantis homeworld exposing themselves to a mind-altering pheromone in the process.
The trio is now obsessed with opening the portal permanently allowing their mantis overlords access to our world; they are harbingers of the Swarm, selected to terraform and prepare Earth for the coming invasion. Wielding mighty instruments of sonic assault they herald the approach of the swarm of the brutal blend of thrash death metal and hardcore. The Swarm has slumbered in exile for far too long, the gates are ready to open, and it’s time to join the Swarm!
