 Review by Anthony DeLuca - Unstoppable Force Webzine 1/2/10

Throw out the idea that an unsigned band produces shit sounding records. APATHY has clearly taken the effort in giving the fans a nicely produced album.....something some larger bands lack. Content here is PACKED with pleanty of Thrash Metal to last - ten songs round out this debut gem. This is a clever nod to the album title, "A Decade of Violence".

I am a huge Thrash fan and when it is played right it totally kills in my opinion. Well, you can add thisband to the list. Bone crushing riffs and perfect thrash metal vocals were a highlight for me on this. I am a sucker for a good riff and this one had plenty of those and just had my head banging in seconds. This is pure old school thrash metal delight. The production is perfect and the guitar sound is giving my neck more workouts that it needs ha, ha. This brings back Bloodfeast, Whiplash, Deathrash, etc. I will def try and get an interview with this band asap.

  •  July 28th 2009 - ....."Can't say enough about the new CD, just digging it all around. But there was something else, and I finally figured it out. This is the first album in a LONG time that I can play beginning to end and not get that feeling that I have to skip a song. I haven't had an album like that in at least 20 years. It's a front to back album man, and that is no small feat.

    The songs all have enough in common to fit together, yet are distintive enough to play separate.

    I gotta say though I'm pretty surprised because I wouldn't never have guessed I would have liked this as much as I do. Usually I gravitate more toward faster stuff or maybe more technical, but damn man, this is just pure great metal that plain works! I have to say this is the album of the year for me, no B.S. The only one I could possibly see giving it a run is the upcoming SLAYER album.

    Yeah man, in my sick little world your CD is that good. Congrats man, you just set the bar way high for your second one. LOL!"

.....finally, hitting the shelves this week is the debut CD from my favorite local thrashers Apathy! Their new CD, A Decade Of Violence, dropped locally this week and will be released worldwide later this summer.

North Jersey Notes:

by Tim Louie, April 16, 2009

I’ve been getting messages from Pete and Bill from Apathy all week! Looks like the boys are finally done recording their upcoming CD, A Decade Of Violence, and they’re super excited about it! So, excited that singer and guitarist, Pete Wells, actually sent me a video of the boys during their recording sessions via text message, and drummer Bill Jameson emailed me three rough tracks to listen to. The songs that he sent me—“Machine Gun Rain,” “Era of Terror,” and “War Torn” sounded pretty good for rough tracks. The guitar work on these songs was typical classic metal riffs ala Megadeth, Metallica, Testament, Flotsam and Jetsam, etc. These songs brought me back to an old Jersey metal sound that seems to have been lost with all of this nu-metal crap! I have to be honest; I’m digging the new Apathy stuff! No one else around here has this sound anymore and if they do, they’re not doing it as well as Pete and the boys from Apathy.

  • May 2008 (Phase 54 Club Owner) Tempe, AZ - "I'm not into metal at all, but I like these guys and their songs. They know how to put on a show too! The people can see that you enjoy what you do and that's what's missing from a lot of bands I see"
  • Phase 54 Sound Guy - "You guys sound good" "The owner like you too, and he dosen't like metal at all."

North Jersey Notes Update: Split Vision, Apathy, Ten Feet From Murder, Charetta

—by Tim Louie, June 25, 2008

After playing an unbelievable show at the Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, NJ, last weekend, I have tons of news about some of the bands involved! First off, my bros from Split Vision have finally posted some more new songs off of their long-awaited upcoming EP on their MySpace page, myspace.com/splitvisionband. Split Vision’s “For You” has been posted on the page forever, but they recently added “Fallen” and “Sorrow,” which can be requested on WSOU’s Street Patrol. These tracks sound great! I cannot wait to hear the rest of the CD!

Pete Wells and his boys, or should I say “Metal Gods,” from Apathy are looking to take some time off to write some new material for their upcoming untitled CD. Well, actually they’ve already begun writing it, but Apathy feels that they need to take some time off from performing to iron things out with the new songs that they’ve written. You can find out more about Apathy at myspace.com/apathymetalgods
