Protest the Hero

Protest the hero is a Canadian band from Ontario. in 2003 they released an EP called a calculated use of Sound, this cd was punk influenced and had very political lyrics. their first full length album Kezia released in 2005 was a completely different sound from their Ep. Kezia is a mix of many different styles, vocalist Rody Walker's voice has evolved a lot and added a lot of new elements to their sound separating them from other bands. Their riffs are metal enough to earn the respect of the metal scene yet their high pitched emoish vocals and hardcore breakdowns drew the scene kids. Protest the hero is a great band with an amazing stage presence, fun to listen to songs, and very original style.
