Frozen Embers is a five-piece metal/thrash/death metal band centered in Omaha, Nebraska. Formed in late 2004 by Alex Kinnerk and Billy Liebermann at the ripe ages of 15 and 14 respectively, the two began recruiting members at their high-school. The two found guitarist Peter Koneck-Wilcox, bassist Pat OGrady, and singer Aaron Smallz Roberts for their initial line-up. The original line-up was very fond of the traditional heavy metal and hard rock sound, covering Velvet Revolver and Metallica at their first string of concerts.

After releasing their first demo the Hell Freezes Over EP, to rough reviews, Frozen Embers began a long string of line-up changes that plagued the band until late December of 2005. After playing 4-5 shows with a different line-up each time, the co-founder Alex and Billy finally recruited screamer/guitarist Matt Kathol, shredder Matt Thomson, and bassist Adam Guiffredo to complete the metal fivesome. After playing several shows with the likes of bands such as Cellador, Anonyma, Fury Never Fades, Dead of Dawn, and several other Omaha names, the band realized they had stumbled upon something very special.

The band entered the studio again in early March of 2006, to re-record the Hell Freezes Over EP and to add extra tracks to the arsenal to compose the new, and improved Six Feet of Silence EP. Taking elements from death and black metal, and combining it with the original components of thrash and heavy metal, the band continues to brew their original blend of pain-stakingly technical and brutal metal. With a new demo, a fresh, young, and talented line-up, and the determination to bring quality metal to Omaha, Frozen Embers is poised to bring the best aspects of early 80's metal, thrash, black metal, and death metal, and combining them with elements of todays modern metal.
