Diamond Rowe Explores Melodic Shred
THE MEMBERS OF TETRARCH ARE OBVIOUSLY too young to have starred in some golden-era-of- Hollywood film celebrating the American Dream, but their story would have made an excellent script for a ’30s feel-good flick, nonetheless. The timeless plot revolves around hard work and a maverick spirit, but, today, when so many bands struggle to find an audience and a viable way to support their art, the Tetrarch narrative also becomes a kind of beacon of hope.
The band formed in Atlanta, Georgia, in 2007, and while it has released a bevy of albums and singles— and gained tour-support spots for major acts such as Avenged Sevenfold, DevilDriver, and Seether—it has never had the commercial and promotional benefit of a major record label. Even more intriguing, Tetrarch’s latest album, Freaks, cracked the top 20 of several iTunes charts on its release. That’s a pretty stellar accomplishment for a band that is entirely independent. Go team!
Diamond Rowe shares the guitar duties in Tetrarch with guitarist/vocalist Josh Fore, and here she provides some insights about the current metal scene and how she forged her own unique style of shred.
