Thanks so much. I hope you enjoy it!

A little info about a.hero.for.nothing:

We're about 2 and a half months old, and we've been busting our asses to spread the good word. We appreciate any and all help you can give us. We're shocked and inspired by the incredible response we've gotten from people so far, and I want to keep this momentum moving ferociously forward by doing anything and everything i can possibly do, to draw people in, and experience our sound. Our blood burns for our fans and we feed off their enthusiasm, love, and support. Our songs are varied in musical style, but at their core they share common ground. Always raw, always scathingly honest, and above all, always real. All the songs are written from my own experience. The song 10 rings, a graphic depiction of a woman breaking free of a brutally abusive relationship, is ripped from the pages of my own life. A knot in my chest finally undone, and in doing so, hopefully reaches out to those who undergo what i went through on a daily basis. In any case, we were very unhappy with our demo initially because all we heard were our mistakes (and my bad notes) and our complete inability to properly produce a recording... but regardless of how we look on it, people seem to respond to it. Right now we're trying to get our poor asses signed and into the recording studio to get our songs properly recorded/produced. We have about twelve right now. Our ranks include Michael Shapira (Drums), Forrest Looker (Bass), Mike Volpe (Guitar), Rob Connors (Guitar), and Chritsian Guerrero (that's me, Vox). Our influences are as varied as our age and backgrounds. If you any questions about us, or you want to check out a show, don't hesitate to drop us a line. Thanks again for giving us the time of day

Sincerely,

Christian Andre Guerrero

Forums: Classifieds,

yeah bro, you guys have fuckin potential..
the vocals are excellent, so are the drums and guitars, i know the feeling of always being critical of your own music but i listen to a lot of music in this style and the songs are a lot better than some ive heard, excellent lyrics too, and you have some beautiful melodies.
Keep up the good work. I hope you get this off the ground and go somewhere,I'll be recommending your music to some of my friends who are this way musically inclined.

holy shit brother, thank you for the wonderful compliments. It's your support that keeps us alive. Drop me a line anytime and please sign up for our mailing list @ www.aherofornothing.com. Tell me a bit about New Zealand... I've never been there but I've seen beautiful pictures. Is there a good scene up there? Talk to you soon

Unfortunately the scene isn't as populated as I'd love it to be, but that doesn't prevent the bands who do do this style doing it well. I listen to a lot of stuff rooted in the underground though also,from nz,america or otherwise, and I always appreciate the ability to support such up-and coming bands as yourself. Pass my regards onto the band if you wish to.
As for the country, yeah, what you may have seen in the photos is one very notable aspect, the scenery,but theres also other aspects too that make it quite a nice country. People who come here don't often leave with derogatory sentiments. I wish there was more of a thriving scene.
Perhaps if you guys "make it", loose term, or if you gather some money, you could come down here sometime?
By the way, ive been thrashing "10 rings" today and yesterday, it's great. Would be interested to hear some other new tunes. I listened to the other songs on your site as well. I worked out the guitar part for 10 rings today. Cool stuff, bro.
Anyway,hope you get to read this and reply again, if not perhaps I'll email you it. Do you have AIM?

also bro, just wanted to say it's really refreshing to see a newly formed band who burn with such enthusiasm, and, most importantly, are so appreciative of their supporters etcetera, with this mentality i'm sure you'll become very popular in your scene and those beyond. from what i've heard the comments in the excerpt from your site seemed justified. Also, how do you order the merch off your site?

wow dude, as always thank you from the bottom. If you would like to order merch, please contact ajdrummer@cs.com with order info and a shipping address. He'll then get in touch wih you with price/payment info. My aim sn is colavoce07, im me anytime brother.
