What do you get when you mix heavy guitar riffs, pounding drums, melodic bass, and souring vocals with influences from the Bad Brains, and Into Another, to Led Zeppelin and Jeff Buckley? Laws Of Gravity, a band fresh out of New York City, looking to leave their mark on the music world.
This edgy rock quartet, formed by Mike Dijan, whose fierce guitar writing with Breakdown, Crown Of Thornz, Skarhead, and a few others, exemplified the raw, pure roots of hardcore at the height of it's popularity in New York City. He called on fellow hardcore stalwart's Harry Kazakos on bass (Breakdown), and drummer Ray Greene (Fahrenheit 451, One True Thing) to start a new project. Several jams in the studio laid the groundwork for a batch of great songs, and just needed the right vocals to bring it all together. It was then that Mike met singer/songwriter Rebecca Haviland after her performance at the famed West Village Landmark, the Bitter End. While unexpected and unsure about where the meeting would take them beforehand, the musical cohesiveness was almost instant.
The band has spent the last year perfecting and expanding on their sound, crafting songs with a unique and melodic edge. Armed with a refreshing exuberance towards their craft, there is a genuine eagerness to play in front of a crowd and to have their voices heard all over the world. Now with the pieces in place, and a slew of new material, Laws Of Gravity is ready to tour and carve a new path for a new music scene.
