VENDED UNLEASH FEROCIOUS, DEBUT SELF-TITLED ALBUM TODAY!


The wait is over. Metal's next titans of brutality have arrived. Today, Des Moines' heaviest band to come along in decades, VENDED, has released their long-awaited debut, self-titled, self-released album.


What began in 2018 as Cole Espeland (guitar), Griffin Taylor (vocals), Simon Crahan (drums), Jeremiah Pugh (bass) and Connor Grodzicki (guitar) were just teenagers, has escalated into a full scale movement with legions of diehard fans around the globe. Unwavering DIY work ethic, a born ability to create colossal, unhinged songs and years perfecting their craft on the road have led to this moment as the band become the torchbearers for a new generation of metal fans.


On the VENDED's anticipated follow-up to 2021's What Is It/Kill It EP, the band holds nothing back on 13 cataclysmic tracks of unbridled savagery. Produced by Chris Collier (KORN), the record features 13 rage-fueled tracks, including previously released singles "Am I the Only One," "The Far Side," "Nihilism" and "Serenity."


Commenting on the record, the band says:


"We see this record as an outsider’s depiction of the world we live in. And a reflection of one’s self as we drift through life’s emotions.. This album is completely raw and uncompromising. We wanted to convey the aggression we felt while making it, and give fans a glimpse into that side of Vended. Welcome to the world as we know it.”


In conjunction with the album's release, VENDED has revealed a music video for their song "Where The Honesty Lies."
