Walls of Jericho's latest is here and they're touring too

WALLS OF JERICHO release The American Dream on Trustkill Records, produced by Ben Schigel (Chimaira/Ringworm), featuring 12 solid tracks of metallic venom and concrete fury of hardcore/punk that the band is known for hits the street today.

“We put all that we have into this new record, and trust me; it is extremely heavy. Right now we’re calling it a ‘thrash metal delicacy” says Candace

Candace Kucsulain -vox, Dustin Schoenhofer - drums, Aaron Ruby – bass, Mike Hasty – guitar and Chris Rawson – guitar, have also perfected their hard hitting live set currently playing to sold out crowds on the Rockstar Mayhem Festival with the likes of Slipknot, Mastodon, and Dragonforce to name a few although Walls of Jericho is the only band to bring any estrogen to the tour…

"Walls Of Jericho destroyed the stage, own the mosh pit. The vocalist took away the all power of singers, and that power was ruled by the only female on the tour! Candace, of Walls Of Jericho. She is the real Mayhem!"
--Al Harbison CEO Screachen Publications July 2008

"I hold my own, I just look better in a dress."
States Walls of Jericho frontwoman Candace Kucsulain

Most bands today can be lumped into one category or another, they are shuffled, redefined, and in that way they begin to lose the qualities that make them important or meaningful. The greatest bands, the most influential and memorable, are the ones who don't try to fill the role set for them, who don't pursue anything other than the desire to make music, and the need to express their art. From the start, Walls of Jericho has had this aesthetic in mind.

“ferocious and energetic”
