In Arcadia

From the ashes of the notorious Florida hardcore band Carlisle (which also featured members of As Friends Rust and Reversal of Man), guitarist/vocalist Joe Enos moved north to the wastelands of Detroit. He released a limited 4-song All Green Lights CDep on Handstand before teaming up with the members of what would be IN ARCADIA. If It Bleeds, We Can Kill It is IN ARCADIAs first full-length as a full band. Its a melodious assault of hardcore in the vein of Anasarca or Falling Forward with the catchy melodies of early Piebald or Sunny Day Real Estate. Joes soaring guitars are both powerful and pretty, while his vocals range from uplifting harmonies to harsh wounded-animal screams. Blake Thomas provides the rhythm section, effortless delivering drum beats with guts and groove, while Corey Gasss pulsating basslines catch you right in the throat. IN ARCADIA are driving, melodic, and most of all moving.
