Last month, VENDED dropped their incendiary debut track,
‘Asylum’ to wide critical acclaim, before playing a massive hometown show at the sold-out
KNOTFEST IOWA event, which also saw sets from MEGADETH, GOJIRA, LAMB OF GOD, FEVER 333 and TURNSTILE among others, as well as a headline performance from SLIPKNOT.
VENDED‘s fresh and unique sound heralds a new era of heavy music and the arrival of the next generation of brutality. Formed in February 2018 by Cole Espeland (lead guitar), Griffin Taylor (vocals), Simon Crahan (drums), Jeremiah Pugh (bass) and Connor Grodzicki (rhythm guitar), VENDED showcase a barbarous sound built on foundations laid by the power and precision of the rhythm section, layered with vicious guitars, soul crushing solos and guttural-yet-melodic vocals portraying the hardships and harsh realities of life.
Stay tuned for more coming from VENDED very soon. In the meantime, catch them live at
