I live in New Jersey and I have not heard of many bands that became
famous and at the same time originated from my home state. I was
one a mission to find one. Armor for Sleep saved the day.
Armor for Sleep originated in Teaneck, New Jersey. They were
signed and contracted by Equal Vision Records to produce their album.
But what kind of band was Armor for Sleep? They were an emocore
band. Now what is emocore? Emocore music is music that is
emotionally based. So if one is to classify their music, what
would they put it under? Indie rock with a
metaphorical style.
So, how did Armor for Sleep originate? Did they
have a lot of money to help them out to be successful and financially
stable? Of course..............not! Lead singer Ben
Jorgensen took the first initial steps to creating Armor for Sleep to be
the band it is now. He recorded the first songs of Armor for Sleep
with ONLY $100! How did he do this? He saved money by
playing all the instruments himself. Later on he was helped by his
band mates which he met in college. The Armor for Sleep band
consists of Jorgensen and bassist Anthony DiLonno, plus guitarist P.J.
DeCicco and drummer Nash Breen, who are cousins. All four guys grew up
together in New Jersey and are a very tight group of friends. To
learn more about Armor for Sleep, keep posted because more information
is coming!
