You might not be familiar with Limb From Limb yet, but there's a good chance you know the band's musicians from their previous work.
Based out of Columbus, Ohio, Limb From Limb features dudes who have also played in Empire of Rats, Mushmouth, Sentinel, and Rejoice. "To make a very long story short, around 2019, Dustin (guitar in LFL), Zac (bass in LFL), and I were in a band called Empire of Rats," explains drummer Keenan McNeal. "In February 2020, I moved to Pennsylvania and Empire of Rats ended, but Dustin, Zac, and the other members kept jamming the songs we were writing. Shortly after that, they brought in Chris (vocals in LFL) to do vocals in that band."
Keenan picks up the Limb From Limb origin story: "Fast forward to March 2022, I moved back to Ohio. Dustin, Zac, and Chris were still jamming, but hadn’t really done anything with the band yet due to members coming and going. I ended up rejoining the band on drums, and we started writing new songs. A few months later, my good friend Tom sent me a demo he wrote that was very close to the style that LFL was heading. I asked if he would be interested in joining the band, and he ended up being the missing piece we needed to really get this ball rolling. From there, we started carving out our sound and finally, here we are."
Limb From Limb's debut offering is "Worthless//Flesh Decay," a 2-song drop that came out earlier this month.
"Our sound is probably best described as '90s Swedish/Florida death metal-inspired hardcore. Our main influences when writing have been bands like Entombed, The Haunted, Obituary, Merauder, and Crowbar."
The two tracks will be part of Limb From Limb's forthcoming EP, Flesh Decay. , which Keenan is psyched to get out there. "This release is truly a labor of love and we’re all very excited to finally share it with the world. It was tracked and mixed by our good friend Shaun O’Shaughnessy, and mastered by Alan Douches.
"Right now, We’re just focusing on getting this EP released and playing shows. We’re all itching to play these songs live cause we’ve been playing them at the practice space for so long. Our first show is August 17th at Mansfield Music Fest with EyeHateGod and Exhorder in Mansfield, Ohio."
