The long hours of tedious work are finally be ing recognized in an exhibit at the Spiers Gallery in the Simms Art Cen ter. For many students, this is the first time having their work displayed in a gallery exhibit, and most likely, it BY LILY SCARPINITO will not be the last time.

Sanctity is here to bring it back,” said Sanctity drummer Jeremy London after the release of their new album “Betrayal” which has just been released under the Whitewater Recording label. Sanctity mixes raunchy guitar nffs with a powerful rhythm section in the bass and drums. Influenced BY CHRIS “FLOWBEE” FREDRICKSON by bands like Dream Theater, Metallica, Megadeth and Pantera, Sanctity is bringing the grungy rock circuit to a new level in Brevard. The lineup consists of Jeremy London on drums, Chris “Nelson’ Rosengrant on the bass, Zeff Surrette on the lead guitar, Joey Cox screaming the vocals, and rhythm guitarist Loren Allsteadte. Their first album which can be bought only at Rockin’ Robin CD Store, only features five tracks but is a great beginning to the first chapter of Sanctity, , , “Our albuin’ ife just the begin- : ning. We are striving to be one of the best and I think that “Betrayal” is a damn good start” said London. Local artists I have talked to say Zeff Surette could be the next Eddie Van Halen, and with what I have heard, I wouldn’t doubt it. However, every band has its weakness. The vocals are weak and could use a little more studio work with effects or maybe even some echo. On the other hand, the vocals can be overlooked easily with the musical genius behind the band. The CD has some awesome guitar solos and a rockin’ drum beat. Don’t be too surprised if you see Sanctity headlining a major tour in seven years. They are one of the best unsigned heavy metal bands I have heard next to Oblivion AD. I give Sanctity’s “Betrayal” album 3.5 (out of 4). Be sure to check it out. I think you will dig this album.
