The FREDEE Show

Inspired by the Sunday hardcore matinees of New York’s legendary club CBGB’s and the thrash metal nights at Brooklyn's L'Amours, the band Enrage was formed by childhood friends.

The band’s first proper demo “Burning Within” was produced by Josh Silver of Type O Negative selling over 3,000 copies. Enrage became fortunate enough to play with a wide variety of bands such as: Agnostic Front, Bad Brains, Biohazard, Carnivore, Cro-Mags, The Dickies, Dog Eat Dog, Earth Crisis, E Town Concrete, Full Blown Chaos, Gwar, Hatebreed, Kreator, Leeway, Life of Agony, Lords of Brooklyn, Michale Graves of The Misfits, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Murphy’s Law, Morbid Angel, Only Living Witness, Overkill, Prong, Sam Black Church, Sick 0f It All, Testament, Thy Will Be Done, Type O Negative and Vision of Disorder.

WABC News also focused on Enrage logos in a segment featuring graffiti in NYC suburbs.

The CD “Empty” was produced by Noah Evans, who had previously worked with the Beastie Boys, Lucious Jackson, Bad Brains, Cro-Mags, Fear, and Sick Of It All. ‘Empty’ was distributed to over one hundred major college markets.

Millions of listeners heard Howard Stern play "Cooper", a cut from the CD , read the lyrics and give Enrage a positive review over the airwaves. The radio push was done without gimmick or promotion.

The band regrouped with a new lineup and released "Nothing Stays Buried." Nothing Stays Buried climbed to the Top 25 of the CMJ Loud Rock charts upon its release and was played extensively on various college radio and foreign radio.

Enrage recently toured Belgium (playing Ieperfest) and France. Enrage has also been a supporting act and headliner along the east coast from New York City to Florida.

In early 2015, Enrage released Gateways Vol. I.  -  the first of a three volume EP set. This hard hitting release features guest vocals by Paul Bearer from Sheer Terror and was mastered by Grammy Award winning engineer, Brad Blackwood (Hatebreed, All That Remains, Korn & Lamb of God).  Gateways Vol. II followed thereafter and featured the metal radio charting song “This Is Sacred.”

ENRAGE Gateways Vol. III is scheduled to be released in August 2018 with a full length to follow later in the year. Once again this EP will be mastered by Brad Blackwood and is will feature guest vocals from Jonah Jenkins (Only Living Witness) and Eddie Sutton (Leeway).  Supporting shows and videos to follow.

" Throwing pretentiousness out the window and always ready with a collective middle finger to be waved at convention, Las Vegas' WICKED GARDEN aren't bad guys - they're just not fond of mainstream ideals. "Who wants to play the same boring songs every other band in town is playing? It’s annoying”, says lead singer/guitarist Dominick Muzio

Formed in 2011 by guitarist Shawn Trojahn simply as an outlet to play some of the favorite tunes of the '90s, and were the ORIGINAL 90's tribute band in Vegas- and have been often imitated since being the first to blaze that trail. The line up as it is now solidified in 2016 and began drawing crowds quickly and steadily. The band quickly racked up three consecutive "Best Cover Band “awards from Las Vegas Weekly (2016, 2017 and 2018) and headlining slots at the cities hottest clubs. With success on any scale comes backlash and animosity and some locals began "talking," saying the band couldn't write their own material. So, they decided to prove them wrong. "It was kind of a ‘We’ll show you!’ situation.” Says Muzio

The band was signed in Autumn of 2018 to Shock Records/ Vanity Music Group and released the EP "Already Gone" in November of 2018 which was met with critical acclaim. Their first full-length album "Post Dystopian Leisure Music" was released by Vanity Music Group worldwide in  2019 with a number of shows thru to early summer and a tour planned for late summer and into part of 2020 before the band again enters the studio to record their follow up album which they have already begun to write.

While most bands try their best to find out where they fit in amongst all the other musicians in the crowd, WICKED GARDEN has set their own path by daring to be different, and doing things their own way, just because... they can. "

I wanted to clear the air about some things with this episode and the next steps. It may be a little heavy at times but it is from the heart.
