100 Demons

100 Demons is a five-piece hardcore band from Waterbury, Connecticut. Being fans of tattoos, the band derived their name from a book of traditional Japanese tattoo artwork by Horiyoshi III. After over a decade of playing in the Connecticut hardcore scene, Deathwish INC announced the signing of 100 Demons to a record contract in 2003. In a press release the label was quoted as saying “Today’s 100 DEMONS encapsulate a viciousness and ravenous intensity that few could achieve.” The band then found themselves at Planet Z Studios with producer Zeuss ( Hatebreed, Shadows Fall ) recording their self-titled album.
