Formed in August of 2008, the members of White Knuckle Battery joined forces to fulfill the dream of Shannon “Princess F’n Hacksaw” Maginn who died in a car accident on 5/4/08. She dreamed of this line up. White Knuckle Battery is not out to reinvent the wheel. It's metal, pure & simple. Drummer Mike Dishman and bassist Dave Fugman are the metal rhythm section from hell, Ed Savoy is a shredding lead guitarist & Joey Mauceri delivers vocals that range from mellow-melodic to pure growling death. This is definitely a band for all metal fans; metal in its purest form not a tread or fashion statement.
