About Concrete Caveman
Concrete Caveman is a ferocious force of a Deathpunk unit, with an uninhibited aggression that pushes the limits of genre. The trio are not new to the music scene,
playing in multiple bands together over the course of ten years. Mindless Flesh is one of the standout names from their early days, with Lord Scumbucket as the most recent band that Concrete Caveman formed from. As frontman Johnny’s writing style developed a heavier and faster edge, it was time for the band to reform and rename themselves for a fresh, pumped-up vibe.
Concrete Caveman unleashes a brutality reminiscent of the death metal that the band found a shared love of early on in their friendship. They avoid traditional rock and metal structures while experimenting with a mix-and-match sound. “Grindcore length without the Grindcore label” is one way the band puts it, challenging each other’s playing when it comes to speed and technique, pulling in blast beats, double bass, and twisting to a
new tone. Deathpunk is the term they’ve claimed to encapsulate their ever-changing and unexpected sound. Lyrically, they have political moments, but it doesn’t dominate their message - more so critiques of the modern world, the state of affairs, and the obsession with technology and social media that can lead a society to destroy itself.
Concrete Caveman forms the culmination of all the sounds this trio has explored so far, and these longtime buddies have stayed loyal to their local Philly underground origins as they continue to expand across the Northeast, Midwest, and beyond. They’re
breaking out of the basement and busting into garages, warehouses, abandoned sites, and even a swamp-bound cemetery - anywhere they can raid with an onslaught of
Concrete Caveman frenzy.
