CONVICTED

Metal / Indie / Progressive

 

Hey fans and fun seekers this is convicted. We are up in puyallup playing music and writing songs about jesus. The band itself is dedicated to above all else praising God and having fun doing it. Our upcoming show is a one song deal and we do not have a date yet for it. also there is talk of the band playing a gig at club impact. If you live in washington and want to check us out we are on pretty much evrey day responding to fans cause we care about you (and hope youll come and see us sometime)

HEY!!! It's matt so were writing so piano type songs and can wait to get them up!!!
We hope to have them up soon but, don't know when!!!!
WE STILL NEED A DRUMMER/VOCALIST!!! SPREAD THE WORD!! WE LOVE YOT GUYS AND IM OUT PEACE!!!

Just a few updates for all of you paying attention today. Our band got together yesterday and decided that we were going to lay down a new track just for you purevolume listeners but it doesnt have a name yet. The lyrics and some pictures are going to be up by saturday hopefully

I also wanted to let you know about our upcoming music video. We are making it ourselves but I hope that it at least gets the point across in an easy to understand way.

We are also putting four other tracks on the website but are still deciding which ones.

Our website is still under construction and will probably be so until further notice.
An opening date is still to be decided. Also we are working on a myspace page for all you websurfers out there we hope to meet your standards.

Hope to see your support in the future


Hey fans I have some news for all of you and most of it is good.

First off we have hired a helping hand that is very versatile
and if you are too lazy to look at the blog I should probably let you know
Michelle is going to help us with album cover costume and band shirt design
She is awesome.

Our self titled demo is begining production tomorrow and we will have to almost certianly have to move our song release date to later in august
sorry for the mess. This is the bad news

More good news for you is that the name of the purevolume exclusive song is called Lost and Found. But that is all the information that I can divulge at the moment.



Good news for all of you out there. Matt and I just finished writing the riffs for Lost and found as well as writing the words.
I think you will all be satisfied with the song. We were.

Our design team of one Michelle is hard at work on our MySpace page right now so she isnt posting anything on this
I guess I have to take care of it.

Matt and I are also hard at work on our website today
but there is still very far to go.

My friend Chris (a guitarist) is inquiring about a position as the lead guitarist so we told him that if he wants it that it's there.

I talked to My buddy Dewey yesterday and he is gonna talk to the guys at club impact about a Young Guns show we'll keep you updated as to what happens

Like teaching a dog a new trick Nick plays the keys all 88 of them
Along side the fact that we have no lead vocalist but three vocalists none the less our pal (and Matt's brother) Nick has decided to play te keys.
He already could but decided at first that he didn't want to. But now he does.
Things change though.

hey everybody I just wanted to tell you guys about the new song. The drumline for it has been created. We also have some video ideas so maybe send in your best music video scenarios and we will try and make your wildest dreams come true.

In other news the show at club impact that Convicted has been trying to snag is going to be harder to get than we thought. see the manager and talent booker or whomever we need to see about it needs a demo CD. so that show will have to wait a while I'm afraid.

do you have artistic talent? Do you want to draw something cool? Well Convicted needs a logo. and we figure what better way to draw a crowd then by having a contest.
All you have to do is put a picture of a logo you drew along with a caption that says CONTEST ENTRY/CONVICTED LOGO and send the band a message saying you have it up and your mailing address so we can mail you the prize the winner will get a free band T-shirt with the logo on it. the contestants that do not win will get special mention on our band page in the order that they place. All entries will be judged by Michelle and cannot depict any nudity or vulgarity of any kind. Good luck and happy drawing. Contest ends on August 31st.


Got some news for you fresh off the press. Our band is sorta changing it's genre. We are more of just a rock band now but will still be covering some of the same stuff.
It wont be a major change but durastic enough to notice. Good thing we can substitue singing for screaming in lost and found.

New updates fresh off the presses for our loyal fans (thanks you guys)

First off the school year has begun for our district and Emerald Ridge is about to get rocked. We have a few more songs for you that might peak your interest.
The first is a ballad straight from Song of Songs Chapter 3 that will leave you thinking about what we said. Then we have a really heavy crowd pleasing number for you guys that might just be too awesome to reveal right now.
Another thing you might be wondering is why the names on the roster change all the time. That is because we have trouble keeping a solid drummer.Please keep us in your prayers and also in your conversations with friends as we'd like to reach as many people as possible with our music.

The next development is the contest entries so we will be checking your personal pages for potential winners that is if you guys even tried to create a logo for us.
The contest winner will be up on our page in a week. (like I said if any of you did it)

The final development is the finalization of the date of our first show, The ERHS Battle of the Bands information will be posted on our purevolume for you to look at as soon as we can attain it. Hope that all of you fans can make it to our shows that live close enough to come.

Again thanks to all of our fans for your support and we hope that we can do more with this in the future,

Ray and Matt.


Hey fans got some more updates for you

We are still waiting on a call back from a few people that could get us a gig but matt doesnt know I called so when he checks this he will be pleasently surprised
so we may have a show before the one that is listed.

As far as that show is concerned we still have no final date but I guess were all gonna have to be patient about it anyway.


Hey guys just to let you know we have some song lyrics up on our
blog you cant miss em
give us feed back
Matt demands some I just wanna hear what you guys thought
I wrote it and came up with the music
he came up with a few changes and then we have Suffering
it's got more than a little screaming
please disregard all of the other words saying we
are not hard at all.

DONT READ THIS IF YOUR UNDER 13!!!





This may make you sick! Why do we sleep in church, but when the cerimony is over we suddenly wake up? Why is it so hard to talk about God, but so easy to talk about sex? Why are we so bored when we look at a Christian magazine, but find it easy to read Playboy? Why is it so easy to ignore a Godly myspace message, Yet we repost the nasty ones? Why are churches getting smaller, But bars and clubs are growing? Think about it, are you going to repost this? Are you going to ignore it, cause you think you'll get laughed at? Just remember God is always watching you. Repost this as "Don't read if you're under 13." 80 % of you wont repost this. The Lord said: "If you deny me infront of your friends, I will deny you infront of my father." please post this on ur blog and pass on the message!
