Tainted Hate, originating in Holyoke MA, formed in 2004-of it's original members, Ronin (vocals), Jim (lead guitar), and Mike (guitar) combine to form this awsome force. In the past several years they have played numerous venues over MA and beyond. In 2006 they played in the Springflied RockFest and the same year nominated "Best New Band" and "Best Metal Band" in The Valley Advocate's Grand Band Slam.
In the summer of 2007 the band recorded at Zing Studio's to create thier first EP and has plans to head back into the studio in early 2008. Recently welcoming Scott Bode as bassist to the band in late 2007, Scott's lifelong musical talent complemented Tainted Hate's style and rounded out thier grungie metal sound.
Tainted Hate comes together with a lot of influences but most importantly for the love of what they do as like most musicans. Their melodic against the grain driving sound with ripping solos and blood renching screams make them unique. It is also what sets them apart from other so called "metal" bands. Tainted Hate has been through some loses in 2007 but they still remain. COMING TO A CITY NEAR YOU 2008
