about
Scars of Life is a powerful five-piece nu metal band that emphasizes depth in musical style and emotionally-charged meaning in its lyrics. This quintet hails from South Florida, and is currently taking on the music scene by storm, propelling its music to new heights daily. In the new millennium, Scars of Life was created after the disbanding of "Confined", a well-known hard rock act from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Confined was made up of Kyle Shapiro on bass and vocals, Anthony Parrinello on Guitar and Vocals, Joe Raio on Guitar, and Jason Rodman on drums. Being that Confined was based around a death-metal theme, the four members wanted to try something different. When their first song was written under this new sound, they knew right away they had something special. The band was also rearranged in such that Kyle was no longer playing bass, but had switched to vocals full time. This created the need for a new bass player, and Al Torres was in the right place at the right time. Now with the lineup complete, the new group began a six-month songwriting phase. For each new song, their style developed, taking on a new shape. One common theme emerged throughout this phase, they began to focus on making music that had more emotion and groove. The addition of having strong clean vocals as well as aggressive vocals was something that has become a signature sound for the group. By the end of 2000, the group, still with no name, entered the studio with the locally famous Jeremy Staska
