Every now and again a person piques our interest for one reason or another. Aaron King is one of these people. His story is amazing. King, a Buffalo native, started his musical journey at five years old playing the drums in church. He grew up listening to gospel and worship music. As a teen, King was introduced to hardcore and metal music. He was immediately hooked on the aggressive sound of this musical genre. In his senior year of high school, King  joined his first hardcore/metal band named Thorax Collapse. The band played the local Buffalo scene.

King then went on to play for various bands over a 15 year time span. During this time he toured throughout the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Europe, and England. King explained this time period as, “A wild ride” and went on to say, “I am grateful for the experiences I had.”
