Slow, intentional damage refers to the living process that many of us force upon ourselves on a daily basis. The times we are mired in anger, sadness, ennui, and disloyalty- the hours we spend damaging our own hearts and minds through the effects of alcohol and drug abuse are the very actions which slowly destroy ourselves. Slow Intentional Damage provides an outlet for these frustrations. Utilizing aggressive hardcore and thrash, fused with elements of classic rock, funk, and blues, producing a complex array of sound with furious guitar solos, relentless drumming, and in-your-face power groove breakdowns. Founded in 2000, S.I.D has played with many great local bands throughout the years and has been plagued with many lineup changes. (Big shout to Liquid Joe,Rob,Phil,Igor,Dougie,Chickini, Fatty,ect.)In June 2005,the band seemed almost to grind to a complete halt when EVERYONE (except for Brad) quit. But,as fate would have it, Josh Turner,and Scott Meece came in and breathed a new life into the bands’ dynamics and sound. Anyone who has been fortunate to catch a S.I.D show as of late will tell you there is a new,raw,focused energy that will have your head banging and your body moving.
