What are the critics are saying?

“one of AP’s bands you need to know in 2007” — Alternative Press (AP)

Temptation Come My Way is going to be accepted by the public, there’s no doubt about that.” — HM Magazine

Artist to Watch in 2007 — Relevant Magazine

‘The roots of the Tennessee-based band certainly can be traced back to classic heavy metal. Their songs ignoring any falderal get straight to the point, are spiced with brilliant double-axed guitar leads and dominated by David Bunton’s massive voice reminding of James Hetfield at times.” — Metal Hammer

Pray for Decyfer Down!

Today around 4:30 PM Central time- Bloomington IL, Decyfer Down lost control of their vehicle due to ice and snow on the interstate. The vehicle then collided with a parked car sitting on the side of the road. The vehicle and trailer jack-knifed, the trailer sheared away from the van doing multiple rotations and coming to a stop blocking three lanes of I-74 the Vehicle in the meantime did a 720 degree rotation and hit a guard rail stopping it from rolling down a very steep embankment. Air bags deployed, bodies were thrown. Chris suffered several lacerations on his hands and all were severely bruised and shaken. Needless to say both vehicles in the collision were completely totaled. The female motorist in the parked car was rushed to the hospital for treatment.. she is believed to be stable. The guys are staying strong.. even though this is a huge blow.. PLEASE KEEP THEM AND ALL THEIR FAMILIES IN PRAYER!

More details to come..

The DD guys send their love and want everyone to know that they really appreciate everyone’s prayers and support.

Be blessed
