In today’s metal world, heaviness is the name of the game, and there are few bands that use this fact to their advantage as well as Philadelphia, Pennsylvania’s Myself My Enemy.

Comparable to bands such as The Black Dahlia Murder, Veil of Maya, and First Blood, the band has amassed a huge following in the Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware scenes. Established in 2005 by drummer Andrew Gries, vocalist Mark Rivello, and guitarist John Viebahn, Myself My Enemy quickly began to build the foundations for what would later mature into one of the darkest sounds in the northeastern United States.

Recruiting the help of guitarist Derek Parker and bassist Conor Hesse, Myself My Enemy now had a complete lineup and a new vision for writing heavier, more European-influenced death metal, while still staying true to their roots in hardcore. While playing shows in the Pennsylvania area, MME caught the attention of Broken Hope Productions; an indie label based out of York, PA, and was signed to the label in the summer of 2007. Myself My Enemy has released two EPs under Broken Hope, “Myself My Enemy” in 2007 and “Anamneses” in 2008. MME’s music
