The Bronx Casket Co.

Formed as a side project by Overkill bassist D.D. Verni, and featuring several prominent metal musicians, the excellently-monickered Bronx Casket Company is musically miles away from the thrash of Verni's main band. Instead, the focus on the 1999 debut is dark, gothy metal, sometimes reminiscent of Type O Negative but not quite as heavyhanded. Keyboards and guitars play an equal role in defining a dark, melancholy atmosphere, with Myke Hideous' vocals a perfect fit for this style. Among the tracks on their debut are a fine ballad ("Alone") and a cool, un-thrashy take on Metallica's "Jump In The Fire". They've recorded three more albums between 2001 and 2011 but do not appear to be active now.
