BAND: Too Pure To Die

Biografie
Somewhere in middle America, Des Moines, IA to be exact—meet America’s hardest working Blue Collar laborers, Too Pure To Die. You might not call Iowa the average breeding ground for heavy music, but you might be impressed. Small town would be the wrong description—think King’s “Children of the Corn” sans the excess of blood and you might have an accurate idea of our setting. Too Pure To Die grew up on all the essential northeast and west coast bands, not to mention hometown heroes, Slipknot. When guitarist and forerunner Jordan Peterson started the band 5 years ago he never imagined that they would accomplish so much. In an era where the average band’s shelf life is lucky to last that good ole’ 15 minutes, Too Pure To Die has far surpassed the ante and are raising for version 2.0 of the band...
The background, in 2006—after years of DIY touring and a self released LP, the band inked a deal with west coast buzz label, Sumerian records. In summer of 2006 the band recorded their first serious release “Confidence and Consequence” which was released later that year. The band did a series of full US and Canadian runs alongside such bands at August Burns Red, Misery Signals, Sworn Enemy, Caliban, Kataklysm and The Acacia Strain to support the release. Throughout 2006, the band saw all too many faces on stage. Recognizing that a revolving door of members was a confusion to their fans, the band had to get back to the start and figure out where they really wanted to be. “I’ve always been looking for a full band of people that are ride or die like I am, I feel we finally have that group of guys,” comments Peterson.
