Described as "a fresh take on late '70s rock with punk sensibility and a metal soul" (is there such a thing?), The American Plague is an enigmatic wall of sound, a white-hot noise produced by three unrelenting musicians in an uncompromising outfit born to burn. Confused? Take equal parts MotÖrhead, The Stooges, NY Dolls, and Black Sabbath, add a little Ramones for good measure, then throw it all in a blender and crank it to 11. Influences aside, the real meat of The American Plague comes from the men behind the madness: Jaw (guitar and vox), B.J. Fontana (drums), and Dave Dammit (bass).

Although The American Plague began in early 2000, all three members are seasoned musicians with impressive legacies to show from past endeavors. Jaw made his bones in the mid-'90s with The Malignmen, a notorious punk group that scoured the Eastern United States for almost four years. More recently, he could be found in NYC's legendary horror-rock trio, The Undead. Dammit, a Texas native, co-founded the thrash-metal quartet Nocturna(TN), while Fontana, a self-taught sessions drummer, jammed with various musical projects for the better part of the last decade.

Recording for The American Plague's debut EP took place in May, and the CD (slated to be released through the band's own Plague Records) is due out in July. T.A.P. plans to embark on its maiden tour of the U.S. in support of the release, touching both coasts before traveling to Europe at the end of the year. The contagious RockNRoll of The American Plague has arrived . . . Could world domination be far behind?
