The finality of death rests on the assumption that life is something other than
illusion.
Conceived from the surreal world between the two extremes, LAZARAS
erupted as a testament to a love of horror movies and music. Citing
influences including Black Sabbath, the Misfits, Iron Maiden, Alice Cooper,
and the Ramones, the band sought to incorporate their love of death and
violence with their love of guitar-driven, aggressive music.
The result is a band that adds a unique flavor to horror punk. The diverse
taste and background of the members are reflected in their debut EP. The
songs range from short assaults to extended poundings, from punk to metal,
from light-hearted horror to eye-gouging terror.
A love for the dead carries over into their stage show. Charles, Darrell, and
Jon bring the horrors of the crypt to the stage with every show they play,
complete with ghoulish imagery, larger-than-life props, and the musical fury
of a trio of demons. There can be no doubt that LAZARAS genuinely loves
to scare the hell out of an audience.
