IMPROVED SEQUENCE PRESENTS

Live al Freakout Club

DAZZLING KILLMEN (US) [FIST ITALIAN SHOW EVER]

Foundational math rock / post-metal / jazz-core band Dazzling Killmen have announced they have re-formed and will be performing live again.

Founding members, vocalist/guitarist Nick Sakes and drummer Blake Fleming will be playing together for the first time since disbanding 30 years ago. The two will be joined by bassist Evan Jagels and guitarist Ben Greenberg of the band Uniform.

Dazzling Killmen formed in the St. Louis area in 1990 and was composed of vocalist/guitarist Nick Sakes and jazz students – drummer Blake Fleming and bassist Darin Gray. Guitarist Tim Garrigan later joined the band after guesting on their “Medicine Me” single. The group would break up in the fall of 1995.

Sakes went on to play in the band Colossamite with future Deerhoof members Ed Rodriguez and John Dieterich. He is currently a member of the Minneapolis post-hc trio Upright Forms. Fleming was the founding drummer of Laddio Bolocko and then The Mars Volta.

Taking influence from hardcore punk and jazz music, Dazzling Killmen influenced the genres that came to be known as math rock and post-metal.
