When guitarists Diego Farias and Daniel Braunstein began collaborating and producing new material in their hometown of Los Angeles, US, in early 2009, it marked the beginning of the journey that Volumes would embark on. With line up additions including Gus Farias (unclean vocals), Michael Barr (clean vocals) and Raad Soudani (bass), the band began creating the masterpiece which was their debut EP. With the support Outerloop Mangement and Mediaskare Records, the band released “The Concept of Dreaming” EP in 2010.
The following year Volumes released their debut album “Via” and in 2013 the band released their second album “No Sleep” which reached number one on the iTunes Rock and Metal chart headed by the lead single “Vahle”. With tracks such as “Edge of the Earth”, “Erased” and “Across the Bed” saw Volumes on the cusp of success.
2014 proved a pivotal year for the band as they saw their popularity soar as they were invited to play the entirety of the eponymous rites of passage, Vans Warped Tour- the largest touring rock festival in the US which opened them up to a whole new audience who embraced them with open arms. Later that year Volumes took part on Fearless Records compilation series “Punk Goes Pop” on the sixth edition covering Drake’s “Hold On, We’re Going Home”. Volumes have toured the world sharing the stage with bands such as: Betraying the Martyrs, Of Mice & Men, Woe Is Me and Crown the Empire.
Volumes are a band who pride themselves on self-production, writing, mixing and recording adding the definitive quality allowing them to fully reach their potential as they aim to fuse their individual music influences with everything ranging from jazz, post-rock to rap to breathe new life in to heavy music. The dual lead vocals which the band use extensively, creates these intricate layers which adds whole new dimensions to Volumes, ensuring the always remain ahead of the pack.

Los Angeles metalcore outfit Volumes have only been around since 2009 yet since then they have successfully left a solid imprint on the circuit. Although the lineups have gone through some minor alternations, the band has recorded and released two solid albums and have begun to craft a live show that is assured to give them serious longevity.
The stage setup is notably moody with an excessive amount of smoke, dim lighting and very little else as the band appears followed by lead vocalist Michael Barr. There is a slight moment of silent tension before the crunching bass kicks in and the thumping drum beats springs the whole venue into life. The pace is unrelenting all evening as the band demonstrate the prowess of the new material along with older tracks that have clearly become cult favourites in a short amount of time. The bubbling potential of the band is clear by the final performance of 'Wormholes' as they firmly plant their stake in the ground and lay claim to their piece of the scene.

I love Volumes and I was incredibly stoked when a local band booking agent posted that Volumes was performing in st. Petersburg with a lot of great local talent. The punk/hardcore scene in Tampa and St.Petersburg is just incredible first off so there was an amazing turn out. Every band that played was just absolutely wonderful on stage and was just an enjoyable show. The only bad part about the show was that Volumes' van broke down a few hours away in northern Florida. Luckily, Lights Out Booking got a substitute band to drive all the way from Ft. Lauderdale, FL to perform in place of Volumes. I think that the fact that Volumes couldn't make it made me appreciate my local scene more because of the intensity of the show even though the headliner couldn't perform. So I will definitely be hitting up the local music scene more now because of this experience!

Had the best concert experience to date at The Bottleneck in Lawrence, KS seeing Northlane, Volumes and coldrain. Northlane and Volumes made the floor shake and the crowd move like nothing I've ever seen before, totally incedible. I'll definitely be at the next show that any of the bands play near me, especially Northlane and Volumes. From one music lover to the rest who see this: Don't miss these bands, you will have a good time if you're a metal fan.
