Stillborn Portrait has released their first solid full length album and they are quite proud of what they put out for fans regardless of the changes. Kris Cana (guitars) and Juan Alvarado (bass) explain that fans of many types of metal will find easy listening of their music. Fans of Lamb of God, Impaled, and Pantera would enjoy Stillborn Portrait’s album, In the Year of the Moth.There have been line up changes, legal issues with their old band name “Cryptic”, and the loss of second guitarist Jake Wright for personal reasons, but Stillborn Portrait now feels strong and ready for anything thrown at them. They still are looking for a second man on the guitar to take down the role of lead guitar. The band first started off with Kris, Juan, and Mike Lomas on drums. They recorded some songs together for a demo back in 2004. After a few auditions, John Groom came in and took over the role of vocals. Jake Wright also came in as the second guitarist after playing a show alongside Cryptic in his other band. They began recording their first full length album and finally released it. Jake had to leave due to personal reasons leaving the slot for lead guitar open. Look out for Stillborn Portrait’s In the Year of the Moth, which will hit stores soon. You can catch some of their songs on their Myspace Web site www.myspace.com/stillbornportrait . For booking contact Mike at 408 772-9510.
