Notes and references
Horror of Horrors is an American death metal band based in the Washington, D.C. area. The four-piece band was formed in the winter of 1994 by Aantar Lee Coates, Michael Marchewka (both formerly from the Maryland band Exmortis) and Harry M. Lopez and Buddy Buell (both from the Maryland band Neftuwitch).
The band has released three full-length CDs throughout its existence, including 1994's critically acclaimed Sounds of Eerie on Thrash Corner Records. This debut catapulted the band to the forefront of the international underground extreme metal circuit. With a quick-wristed style demonstrating both speed and heaviness, the band has earned a cultlike status in the DC scene as well as much respect from the underground metal community. Through the 1990s the band performed with many notable and international artists throughout the US.
After a long hiatus, the band returned in the fall of 2006 with a new drummer. Plans have been announced to record and release all-new material at the beginning of 2007.
Association with other bands
Members of Horror of Horrors have been involved with quite a few other prominent bands, including Diabolic, Unholy Ghost, Neftuwitch, Exmortis, Drowning Season, PSI, Dahlgren Prophecy and Impiety.

History
After independently putting out one acoustic EP (Urban Rain) in 2000, the four song EP debuted in the #4 spot in Discorder Magazine the same month as its release. It also acquired radio play on Vancouver’s indie radio station CITR, and Ash herself made some live performance appearances on the same station. The CD made it into the hands of Trigger, the founder of girlgig productions, who’s influence on women artists inspired Ash enough to start playing shows of her own. Soon, she was playing at venues such as the Railway Club, The WISE Hall, and ROCKRGRL Music Conference in Seattle. Many main stages and clubs later, she’s performed with the likes of Alix Olson, Pamela Means, Ember Swift, Hector, Yvette, Fruit, Evalyn Parryl, just to name a few.
In 2005 Ash Riot released her debut album "This Time I'll Forgive You...Again". The album was produced and mixed by Rick Boulter (Cosmic Pig Studios) and mixed by Jamie Sitar (Bif Naked,Crowned King)
Music style and influences
