Musician Information

Rising Conviction's music could be labaled as "Alternative Metal", and could be compared to artists such as Tool, Mr. Bungle, Faith No More, and Rollins Band. Of all the bands you might see in a night at any given rock club, Rising Conviction will be the one you remember the next day. Their particular brand of alternative metal breaks the chugga-chugga doublekick monotany of modern metal with smart, upbeat hard rock with hints of dance-rock and progressive metal. It easily fits on show bills ranging in genre from metal and hard rock to punk. Vocalist David Kranson is charisma incarnate; the big man in the center. He takes his role of frontman of Rising Conviction with eccentric growls and spasmatic approach that could be compared to such sing-speak vocalists as Spencer Moody of The Murder City Devils, Matthew Olyphant of Fetish, and Billy Idol. Bryan Hughes' innovative noise-based style of guitar is more about sounds than chords. He plays guitar with his throat and leaves the stage with bloody fingertips, channeling influences from Rage Against The Machine era Tom Morello to indie-rock soundscape masters mewithoutYou. The rhythm section's Floyd Orfield is a reminder that there's more than one way to play rock bass, functioning as a dual role of bass and rhythm guitar. Chord-driven bass lines show hints of influences including Tom Waits, Justin Chancellor of Tool, and Joe Lally of Fugazi. The foundation of it all is Andy LaFave's straight-forward brand of percussion maintains a high-energy delivery from all corners of the act. His style is the product of early metal artists such as Pantera's Vinnie Paul and Metallica's Lars Ulrich, torn down and rebuilt from indie-rock guts. Rising Conviction began writing in late , and performed for the first time in April of . Since then they have performed several times a month at the most popular clubs in the Phoenix area, and built a fan base in the top range of Phoenix-market draw. In Rising Conviction released their first album, "Salazar Brothers" independently to a sold out crowd at downtown Phoenix' Brickhouse, and followed it up with the "Saving Sons" EP one year later.
