–Through The Fire (Band) ≈Introduction Through The Fire is a hardcore band from the outskirt of Chicago formed in the summer of 2006. The band was formed by original members Nejron Zeko, Kevin Tangerous and Bogdan Rada. After a months of looking for a front man the band was approached by friend Vasilious Merkoruis to audition for the band. With the audition being a success Vasilious would become the permanent frontman of the band. In the begining the band lacked a following and had no credibility in the hardcore scene of Chicago. After meeting up with a local booker Shane Marrel, the band started to play countless of shows. In the following years the band would release countless of demos and start to gain credibility from the local hardcore scene. Innerstregnth Records In 2008, after playing countless of shows through out Chicago, the band caught the attention of small indie label Innerstrength Records, based out of New York. The band signed with Innerstrength for one full length and two optionals with full digital distribution. Due to certain guidlines the cd ended up not being released by Innerstrength and the band ended up leaving the label. Hotfoot Records Departing from Innerstrength, a year later the band was approached from Hotfoot Records, also based out of New York, to release their full length The World At Our Feet. The c.d. already recorded and paid for was distributed by Hotfoot through hot topic stores and also a full digital distribution deal. Through poor advertising the band did not receive as much attention as they thought they would. Through the Fire during this period would commmit itself to touring to promote the following release. It was during this time that the original drummer Kevin quit the band, to pursue school full time. A year later original bass player would also quit the band for personal reasons. With the band only consisting of two original members, the band went to hiatus for six months. During this time they went through line up after line up change trying to find commited members. Eulogy Records While in hiatus Nejron and Vasilious were still writing and together recorded one last demo entilted "Restless" With the band left in shambles and loosing touch with their fans after canceling and dropping off of their tours due to member changes they were persistent enough to still release this demo. The demo caught the attention of Eulogy Records in the summer of 2010 and through months of negotiations Eulogy signed the band to one full length and two optionals. The band now half based out of New York will be release their second release through Eulogy hoping to get a bigger, wider promotion through their label. Trademark The band is known for a different style of hardcore. They are downtuned to A and play a more slower version of punk hardcore. The music consists of heavy chugs and diminished breakdown, unlike traditional punk hardcore which reliese on fast thrash parts and standard tunning. The bands single "The Day You Wished For" is known to influence alot of local acts and also bigger bands such as Oceano (Track #8 on Depths). Future The band will be heading to the studio in January 2011 to record their sophmore album through Eulogy. Shortly afterward the band is excited to hit the road once again and hopes gain back what they lost. "We are very excited and proud to sign with Eulogy, a label that has released many bands that I grew up listening to. This full length is dedicated to those that still stuck around after all the problems and tribulations that we experienced over the years." Nejron Zeko
