Lesser Animal (AGATG, ex-Alterbeast) set to record debut

Portland, Oregon based group Lesser Animal will soon enter the studio to record their debut album, which they hope to release this summer. In addition to current and former members of Arsonists Get All The Girls (Sean Richmond and Garin Rosen, respectively), the band also features Monte Barnard (ex-Alterbeast, The Kennedy Veil). Guitarist Jaeson Bardoni comments: "We are four close friends writing raw, crusty, and pissed off music. No deathcore or keyboards, just grind, power-violence and old punk riffage. We're looking forward to bringing our music from our practice space to your ears early this summer. Till then, in the words of Bill and Ted: 'Be excellent to each other.' Most importantly, be safe. The world has been a crazy place as of late."
