A Wilhelm Scream
Posted: Wed Feb 24, 2010 3:36 pm
How does one gauge the success of a band pushing the envelope of a genre that receives little to no credit by the mainstream media? In the case of A Wilhelm Scream, the answer is “Who cares?” – As band playing punk rock for over a decade, original members Trevor Reilly, Nuno Pereira and Nick Angelini haven’t focused on success, image or whatever bandwagon a group can jump on to get their music into the ears of listeners: It’s the ideal of music from an honest place, playing to the kids who want to hear more than a simple love song, or want an opinion rammed down their throats. In lieu of their cause, they earned the invitation to perform with and tour alongside bands such as Rise Against, Pennywise, Anti-Flag, Less Than Jake, and Strung Out throughout US/Canada, Europe and Australia.

Within this ongoing endeavor, AWS has recruited the talents of Brian Robinson (bass) and Mike Supina (guitar); Two Great-Lakers who have strived to help develop the band into the most musically-diverse lineup they’ve had to date, touring every state/province in North America and headlining in venues overseas that span from Russia to Tasmania in support of their 2007 release “Career Suicide” (Nitro Records).

As 2009 continued into a new decade, A Wilhelm Scream returned to their home-base of New Bedford, Massachusetts, to develop a follow-up EP and full-length that promises to cater to the kids who are fed up with “everything else”. Cited by Rolling Stone as “one of punk rock’s most vital and original live acts”, A Wilhelm Scream finally chalk up another nation to their growing list of global conquests when they perform a one-off all ages/licensed show at Auckland’s Transmission Room on Wednesday March 3rd, alongside a stack of top quality local punk and hardcore.

Tickets on-sale Monday January 25th from Moshtix, Real Groovy and www.undertheradar.co.nz
