PLANCALLEDDEADinc.

      Like some teenagers in high school, Bob Skudlarczyk (pronounced Skud-lar-check) started a band. Well, he talked about starting a band with a friend. They made plans and talked about other people joining. They gave the band the name, Plan Called Dead. Years went by and the band was never started, but it still comes up from time to time.

      As an adult, Bob started helping local band, Of Her Blood, get a few shows. Having a few friends in the local scene, it turned out to be pretty easy setting it up. Through the band, he was asked to set up a show in Milwaukee for another band, Light This City. The show was a near disaster, due to the band breaking up about a week before the show and about $400 worth of damage to the venue. Unlike most normal people who would have chosen a different hobby, Bob decided he wanted to continue setting up shows.

      What started as helping a few friends out has turned into a small business for Bob. When it came to naming his booking company, he chose to keep his band's name alive and went with PLANCALLEDDEADinc. Since starting in February of 2008, PLANCALLEDDEADinc. has booked shows for Carnifex, Oceano,

Exhumed, Suffocation, Cephalic Carnage and several other bands. Bob also manages Innerstrength record's band, A Night at the Chalet.

West of Worthy

      Young metalcore band, West of Worthy, is ready to take the scene by storm. Self-proclaimed performing addicts, the band is actively looking for shows to play hoping to rack up more experience and spread their music to as many ears as possible. When asked about the meaning behind the band's name, the band replied, "Sometimes, no matter what you do or how much you give, it's never worthy of the praise of society or whoever matters most in your life. Hence, West of Worthy."

      The band comes from Mukwonago, WI, a suburb of the greater Milwaukee area. According to the band, the local music scene is "becoming pretty lively these days" and the band is getting support slowly, but surely. The band describes their music as aggresive and hardcore, laced with ambient guitar melodies and hard hitting breakdowns. The band doesn't label themselves as a christian band, but they have positive messages in their music that draws from the religion.

 

      The band consists of Hunter Burris (guitar), Kevin Wysocki (drums), Brett Lackey (bass), David Coman (vocals) and David Woznicki (guitar). The band is influenced by As I Lay Dying, Lamb of God, August Burns Read and Underoath.

      Their upcoming EP, The Illusion of Depth, is filled with face-melting melodies, intense breakdowns and meaningful, postive messages in their lyrics. The EP was recorded at JTW Studios. "Recording at JTW was amazing. Joel, who runs the studio, is one of the most down to earth guys we know, and he knows what he's doing. We couldn't have gotten an EP that sounded this good from any other studio." Says the band.

      The band hopes to play an inhuman amount of shows and an even larger amount of fans. They want to release a full-length later this year and hope to get signed.
