Thief: What Nashville Has Been Waiting For



The snake travels through the tall grass hungry with two heads, through the
visceral streets of Nashville, tormented but unafraid, tempted by fate but
dismissing it favorable. While one head gleams at the other; they both await
their moment to strike. The moment is now. Thief has studied those who
have come before them and have placated the demons shared by those who will
never come again. With Spanish classical influences that drip from the melodic
symphony of contemporary instrumentation and lyricism, Thief has infused progressive
musical dialects with the instrumental vernacular of composers centuries past.
From this town, where glory exists in the unknown bands that howl at the night,
They create a portrait of individuals releasing their frustration and
anger on a world created by those they understand only to well. In the alleys
where the disassembled sleep and reappear, in the bars that locals call home,
and where men and women stare at the day through the blackened eyes of forgotten
dreams, this group of men fight their inner demons, brothers in a battle with
the society that made them, carrying in their tunes the passion to bring their
souls to life. Friends and brothers who will kill those who doubt them.
