Die Happy
Die Happy was formed when the core of the Christian speed metal band
Vengeance Rising
(all but vocalist Roger Martinez) departed, in order to explore
a different musical direction.
Die Happy has an 80's thrash/power metal feel to it, with a
vocalist that might remind one of
Jag Panzer's Harry Conklin, and in
fact at times the band itself sounds vaguely similar to JP
circa
Ample Destruction.
Apparently their followup strayed farther from their original thrash
roots, incorporating some funk/groove influences to their sound.
The band was short-lived, and the quartet later returned to their
thrash roots in a new band
Once Dead,
named after the Vengeance Rising album.
