Press

“'Hang it High' features two of my favorite things in metal music: chunky guitar and pinched harmonics. I found myself singing along to each song after only hearing the chorus a few times. You can’t help but bob your head and tap your foot to the beat.”

— Sue Hardee, RaleighMusic.com

“'The Chosen Few' is full of great hooks that stick in your head - it’s infectious, it’s viral, and if any song had a chance of being number 1 on a chart, it’s Modena’s 'The Chosen Few'!”

— GulfCoastMusic.com review

“Modena is definitely a band with a future! I see no reason why they should not become rocks next superstars within the next year! I anxiously await the release of Modena’s full album next year and hope I have the opportunity to review that one as well. I rate SECOND TIME AROUND EP by Modena, 10 stars and a gigantic “thumbs up”!!”

— GulfCoastMusic.com

“If a band is willing to put the time in to promote their own music, both online and off, then being an independent act can be successful. It also offers the band more freedom to do their own thing,”

— Justin Womble, GuitarWorld.com interview

“Your music has captured me from the get go! There is a uniqueness in your style, and I find your music quite refreshing, and not only that...you guys are the friendliest peeps out there! I wish you all the best and keep on rocking!! ”

— Tracey - California, USA, Hardcore Modena Fan

“The members of MODENA seems to have a chemistry that benefits not only musical ingenuity but creative expression as well. ”

— Melody Geear, Northeast In-Tune

Questions

Ask MODENA anything...

Q: Hi. I love the music you guys have so far, but I'm curious about who does what in the band. I mean, I see your names listed, but which person plays which instruments?

A: Hey! apologies for the delayed response. We've been so busy lately! Well, there are 4 members in the band. I'll try to break down our parts as best I can ;) Justin sings lead vocals + backup vocals on some songs, and plays lead guitar, James plays rhythm guitar and sings lead sometimes, but backup vocals most of the time (depending on the song); Stewy plays bass and sings a little backup vox; and Derek pounds the crap outa those drums! \m/ thanks for listening
