Vainglory is an intelligent new band that features intense riffs, masterful guitar, virtuoso drumming, heavy bass, powerful vocals and thought provoking lyrics on their spellbinding debut release 2050. Based around Corbin King, who should be the metal guitar hero for the new millennium, this band has all the ingredients in place to be a major force on the metal market for years to come. The word VAINGLORY is defined as "excessive or ostentatious pride in one's achievements." After listening to 2050 you will see the band has every reason to feel quite excessive in their pride for recording one of the best debut releases in metaldom. Along with the previously unknown guitarist/songwriter Corbin King the band includes new vocal sensation Ted Brasier. Ted is based in Cincinnati Ohio and came to the attention of producer David T. Chastain from his work with the band Liquid Nation. Ted's ability to mix intensity, conviction and emotion is very uncommon in today's singers. The band sites influences ranging from Megadeth, Metallica, Testament, Priest, Death, Rush and Pantera. Listening to the music on 2050 you can hear traces of these bands showing up from time to time to create this metal triumph. 2050 is a concept album that will cause the listener to think about what the future may hold if things continue on their present course.
