LIONS AT THE GATE

A familiar signature sound, but with a fresh and rejuvenated take, former Ill Niño members Cristian Machado (vocals), guitarists Diego Verduzco and Ahrue Luster (ex-Machine Head) along with bassist Stephen Brewer (ex-Westfield Massacre) and drummer Fern Lemus (ex-Silence The Messenger) are LIONS AT THE GATE. Moving on from their previous projects, these musical forces made the most of their creative freedom and newfound inspiration. Machado's powerful vocals are better than ever as he soars with a steady balance and grace with his aggressive scowl as well as embracing his softer side.

What is not lost in this band's musical palette are the dynamics of their trademark heaviness, supported by the foundation of big choruses to balance the crushing rhythm within the songs.
