Russ, Andy and Mark had been jammin around since school , we met Dave through friends and just had him come over one day and just play with us . We all just clicked, and decided to make it a regular thing and Red Nettle was born!
Influences:
Pearl Jam, Deftones, Tool, Bush, Alice in chains.
Life changing albums?
Russ: Its gotta be the first Deftones album Adrenalin. It was the first band to mix really heavy guitars and a strong vocal melody - its just the perfect mix of metal!
Dave: AC/DC - 'Back In Black'. Cos Angus is the man!!
Andy: Definetley 'Appetite for Destruction' by Guns 'n' Roses - it was the first real guitar album I had heard.
Mark: Gotta be Pearl Jam's 'Ten'. Each song expresses so many emotions It's still as good as the first day I heard it.
