Description:
Influenced by bands like Black Sabbath, Helmet, and Tool, the result is a rebirth of heavy alternative into an apocalyptic Zen of musical approach and fresh lyrics. Winners in the 13th Annual Detroit Music Awards for Best Metal Act, Red Tree is unabashedly non-conformist. Monroe's lyrical style and live presence punctuates a frothy foundation of heavy guitars, tasteful & intricate solos from lead Engleman, and powerful rhythmic undercurrents from Sacco and Shoemaker.
