The boys in O'death come from all over the Eastern Seaboard, but got together in 2003 while they were attending the State University of New York in Purchase, NY. They use folk styles -- primarily bluegrass and old-time music -- for a foundation, but punk, grunge, swing, rock, metal, and jazz figure heavily in their arrangements. The original members were drummer David Rogers-berry and singer/guitarist Greg Jamie. Rogers-berry approached Jamie after he finished a solo songwriter gig and suggested forming a gothic folk band. Rogers-berry learned to play drums as a child, and his manic folk-punk style is one of the foundations of the band's sound. With Jamie's unruly vocals -- an inspired blend of singing, talking, and screaming -- the stage was set for a unique blend of alt-rock and hardcore traditional music.
