Biography:
Freedom Assault started in April 2004 in Auburn, Maine. The original members included Travis Assault (guitar/occassional vocals), les drunk (vocals), Brand-o (bass), Aislynne (vocals), and Jeff (drums) We recorded a live demo of 8 songs. At that point we had two female vocalists with very different styles and a thrashy edge. After a month of practicing Brand-o left the band. We still continued on and set up a our first show to play. We neared the time of the show, and both Jeff and Aislynne left the band due to artistic differences. Freedom Assault went on hiatus for a few monthes. We then found three new members: Lance Firestorm(drums), Punk Rock Joe(vocalist), and Rob-noxious(bass). We wrote a few new songs, and had a few practices but never got serious about playing. Again we went on hiatus until May 2006. Brand-o returned to the band to play drums. We wrote a ton of new songs and recorded a demo in July 2006. We have played some shows with more to come and recorded at Baked Beans Studio in Harrison,Maine. Unfortunately Brand-o decided to leave the band. His last show with the band was March 9, 2007. We moved to Tucson in the begining of August 2007. We have started writing new material. In march 2009 we found a drummer(Stza), bassist(Saint), and a second female vocalist(Joey). With a lack of practice and conflicting schedules Joey and Stza left the band. While on hiatus Les and Travis had both moved onto a different project(myspace.com/resistingarrest or www.resistingarrestaz.com). After Resisting Arrest broke up, it was time to get serious with Freedom Assault. We decided to record a couple new tracks with the Resisting Arrest drummer and finally release the long awaited 7" with hopes to play some shows to promote the record.
