Incert Coin

They say a band is only as good as the sum of its parts; that the value of music is only as grand as its following.

Incert Coin must be doing something right, and doing it well. With 3 albums of original works under their belt and a host of high profile live performances including the Decibel Events showcase opening for American punk band Sugarcult in 2002, the 2002 Pop Rock awards where they swept away the competition placing first in all stages of the 4-week event emerging as the overall winners plus taking home the awards for crowd favorites and best drummer, opening for the multiplatinum selling Firehouse in 2002, a major label showcase in Los Angeles attended by label executives from Elektra, Columbia and Warner Bros at the invitation of Mike Galaxy of Indy Hits and most recently opening at The All Access tour for the Grammy award winning Lit, Incert Coin are an experienced, tight unit of collectively driven musicians.

Their appeal doesn't stop at home. At various times their songs have enjoyed massive success on high profile websites such as farmclub, metalroots.com [ as a front page feature band ], mp3.com, wickedland.com and garageband.com where the songs "Bridge to Nowhere", "A Lesson to Learn", "Skin", "Changes" and "Bastards" outranked a field of 5000+ bands worldwide to chart as high as 24,46,37,39 and 20 respectively. They were a feature band on 'Loud & Local' the premiere rock program on 94.1FM WYSP, one of Philadelphia's biggest radio stations. The music video for the hit "Changes" off 2001's Dead Fairies is a staple on CCN Tv6's regional music video showcase 'Synergy' and the track is rotation on XM satellite radio broadcasting to one million-plus listeners.

Even with such an impressive resume for an unsigned band,
"Incert" [ as their fans affectionately call them ] still think of themselves as a garage band. According to the band, "everything we do is for our fans. Period." And there is no fan more loyal than an Incert Coin fan. In trinidad’s thriving underground scene Incert Coin's blend of melody and metal stands tall and uncompromisingly proud, winning over locals and foreigners alike with every heart pounding live performance.

Having taken most of 2003 to regroup and work on material for their fourth full length album, Incert stands poised to launch into 2004 with a renewed lust for the stage and a point to prove: that even this far from the modern rock world there exists a sound more driving, more urgent and more appealing than most international fare. Incert Coin are James Amow [ Vocals ], Scott Johnstone & Dion Howe [ Guitar ], Bernard Abreu [ Percussion ], and Megan Gill [ Bass ].
