Dry Cell is a fairly new band from SoCal, as if you wouldn’t have known. The band is comprised of Jeff Gutt on lead vocals, Judd Gruenbaum on vocals and bass, Dan Hartwell on guitar, and Brandon Brown on drums. Each member in the band, besides Jeff, who’s 25, is under 17. Judd is 17, Brandon is 16, and Danny just turned 16. They’re a young band with tons of potential. Their sound is influenced by such diverse artists as Slipknot, Metallica, and Misfits. Dry Cell’s sound is different from any other, though. They combine hard rock riffs with soaring melodies and vocals while still keeping the heavy sound in tact.
The band was signed to Warner Bros. Records and they began recording their debut album Disconnected, most of which was already recorded, but needed to be recorded in the studio. When their album was set to be released the band parted ways with Warner Bros. Records. It’s still unknown, really, as to why. However, Dry Cell has been recently picked up by Epic records—the same label housing Korn, 30 Seconds To Mars, Chevelle, Audioslave, and many other great bands—and their true debut album will be out sometime around Christmas; however, no songs from Disconnected will appear on it.
Some songs I’d recommend are ’’Slip Away,’’ ’’Under The Sun,’’ ’’Body Crumbles,’’ ’’So Long Ago,’’ ’’Ordinary,’’ ’’Brave,’’ and ’’I Confide.’’ Be careful, however, because Kazaa and other file-sharing programs will give you demos most of the time, as not too many people own the actual album. I, myself, do not own the album, but I do own the advance version of the album, which is even more rare. You’ll be able to download the majority of these songs from my web site when it launches in the near future.
Check Dry Cell out, who knows? Maybe you’ll become Cellmates as well.
