Additional info
HardRight is energetic Power Metal band from Erie, PA. The group was formed in December of 2001 from the ashes of O.T.T.S., who after 8 years and numerous lineup changes, wanted to point themselves in a new musical direction. Fueled by the batter-dipped goodness of the greatest fast food restaurant chain in the world, Long John Silvers, these four experienced musicians ushered in a new genre of music, PLANK-EDGE. This apocalyptic mix of powerful metal riffs, thunderous, complex rhythms & over the top vocal delivery proved to be a dominant musical force to be reckoned with.

The band plays punishing metal with an early 80's punk rock edge to it, but approach both songwriting & life with a sense of humor. With song topics varying from ignorance to their favorite movies, HardRight bring a cyni-comedic twist to their music.

In July of 2002, HardRight recorded a 12 song album at BlackBox Studios in Fairview. The album features such tracks as the aquatic ambush of "Shark Attack," the plank-driven passions of "Deep Fry My Heart" and the harrowing tale of "Dangerwolf"

HardRight is available to play all age shows, bars, lingerie parties, exorcisms, meat raffles, jamborees, bake sales and fishing charters. (but no frat parties)

HardRights' album is available at their shows or thru the band members directly.

HardRight are four friends playing music for the love of music.
