DEMOLITION

Demolition frontman and founder Rick Linguroski started the band in 2006 with the intention of playing no holds barred thrash metal. After releasing the Strike Force EP in 2007 Rick went on to find band members to complete the line-up and start playing live shows, getting Alan (guitars), Chris (drums) and Davin (bass) on board. With a full line up the band played their first shows in 2009. Later in the year, the band would get a new bassist in Chris after Davin decided to leave due to other commitments. With a new bassist, the band soldiered on into 2010, playing more shows and preparing their debut album. In 2011 Demolition released their debut album Killzone, mixed by Ermin Hamidovic and mastered by Plec at Sweden’s Panic Room Mastering to rave reviews and began to play shows in support of the album. Always giving a memorable and relentless performance, Demolition are sure to tear up the East Brunswick Club!
