Brain Drill

Brain Drill started in the summer of 2005 by Dylan Ruskin on guitars as a sideproject. After parting from his main band Burn At The Stake, he began looking for drummers that could actually play death metal and not just claim they could. After meeting Marco Pitruzella, the former drummer of Vital Remains, Vile, Vornagar, atrocious hysteria, NUMA, and a few other extreme metal bands, it was obvious that he was easily one of the top 10 fastest drummers in the world and instantly was joined into the band. After a few months of jamming Steve Rathjen was then later put onto vocals. Brain Drill entered the studio on march 1st 2006 to release their first 6 song EP. All 6 of the drum tracks were done the day before recording in one take by Marco Pitruzella. There was no editing and nothing was done over, he busted it all out in a matter of under 2 hours with no help from any computers or metronomes in the process. The next day the guitars and bass were added by Dylan and produced by Zack Ohren at Castle Ultimate Studios. On May 9th Steve entered Castle Ultimate to lay down the vocal tracks. He had only 4 days to learn the songs and lyrics and laid them all down in under 3 hours. Unfortunately he left the band shortly after the recording due to stylistic differences. After parting with Steve the band quickly picked up Andre Cornejo the singer [Dead Syndicate], and quickly picked all of the material up. The band then released 'Apocalyptic Feasting' in 2008 by Metal Blade Records. In the winter of 2008 Marco pitruzela and Jeff hughell both left the band due to touring complications. After 5 months of searching for a new drummer the band picked up Joe bondra, drummer for such death metal bands as lethean and irakanji among a few others, the first day he played the songs with the band he was easily the new replacement. A few months later in the summer of 2008 ivan munguia was then added on as the new and permanent bassist. Knowing that he had been in bands such as odious mortem and fetus by the pound it was not even difficult for him to quickly pick up the bass tracks. With a following that grows by the thousands everyday, Currently BRAIN DRILL is looking for shows to play and people to meet.
