Aiden

Hailing from rainy Seattle, Aiden combines post-hardcore and punk attitudes with gothic aesthetics and a love of all things horror (not to mention, of course, the Misfits) to create surging, darkly melodic music. The group formed in the spring of 2003 while its members were still in high school, taking their name from the young, ghost-seeing boy in the 2002 horror flick The Ring. After releasing and touring for their independent debut, the band inked a deal with Victory Records. Their first label effort, Nightmare Anatomy, appeared in October 2005, followed buy a re-released Our Gang's Dark Oath with new artwork in April 2006, an EP, and Conviction in 2007. ~ Corey Apar
