The year 2003 marked the dawn of sdmetal.com<\/strong> and the flourishing of the San Diego metal scene. By a stroke of luck, I crossed paths with an extraordinary group of musicians.<\/p>\n

In the humble confines of Julio’s garage, I witnessed Edgar, Julio, Israel, and Franky pour their souls into birthing Severed. During our conversations, the need for a bassist was a frequent topic, until one day, a striking figure\u2014Ryan Tyler Reidy\u2014arrived in style, clad in a black leather jacket and carrying his bass case, right at Julio’s doorstep. It was at that moment Severed felt truly complete.<\/p>\n

I count myself incredibly fortunate to have managed Severed during those pivotal early years, sharing stages with other local metal talents across San Diego.<\/p>\n

As time marched on, Mondo ascended to lead vocals following Edgar’s departure. Regrettably, my paths diverged from Severed’s journey before I could learn of Edgar’s exit, leaving a chapter of our shared saga untold.<\/p>\n

Below its their DEMO, which was also released in 2003. Enjoy<\/p>\n
