Post-hardcore band Snow White's Poison Bite formed in 2006. Over time they released two full-length albums "The Story of Kristy Killings" (2010) and then follow-up album "Featuring Dr. Gruesome And The Gruesome Gory Horror Show" (2013), with some EP's, demo's and singles with video releases in-between. During their time they would play shows, even tour, gracing the U.S. terrain for a trek of shows. Then nothing would happen after this, only word of more music to come but nothing would happen for quite sometime. Until now, when on July 13th 2018, Friday the 13th word of the band's disbandment would be said upon social media. A video has been posted, revealing an all new band by frontman Allen Cotterill (vocals), this band being called TH13TEENTH. An all new new song called "Disgusting" with all other content, ranging from appeal, podcasts, videos, and music of course, among other things to follow suite.

If you are a fan of metal or any of its various sub genres, you are well aware that some of our heaviest bands actually hail from the cold, unforgiving eastern parts of Europe. It has become overwhelmingly clear that Finnish exports deliver hard hitting riffs and gut wrenching screams time and time again. That said, it should come as no surprise that Joensuu, Finland has brought us our newest dream team in the form of the four-piece alternative horror-punk band, SNOW WHITE’S POISON BITE

Formed in 2007 as a simple “screamo” band, by singer/songwriter Allan Cotterill a.k.a Jeremy Thirteenth the band has since evolved into something much more than that. The band released two EP’s under a small Finnish label, Poko Records. Breaking ground as one of Finland’s very first “screaming, hardcore” bands and quickly gathered a large following, winning fans over with their commitment to delivering intensity on every level. 

After signing a recording contract with Sound of Finland’s Hyeena Trax in 2010, they released their long awaited debut album, The Story of Kristy Killings, which was sold worldwide. The album served as a reintroduction to their fans, revealing a far more conceptual appeal and attitude. with more of a horror-rock style . Reflected in not only their appearance but their riffs as well, SNOW WHITE’S POISON BITE have become Finnish rock icons, with all eyes on them. As most bands do, SNOW WHITE’S POISON BITE underwent a drastic lineup change in early May 2011. Leaving band-founder, vocalist Allan Cotterill, as the only original member. 

Determined to keep his fans happy and the band alive, Allan went to work, searching for new members to create the new and improved SNOW WHITE’S POISON BITE. Today, the bands high-energy line up consists of vocalist Allan “Jeremy Thirteenth” Cotterill, guitarist Tuomo “Tupi” Raisanen, bassist Hannu “Bobo” Saarimaa and drummer Niko "Hoker Dine" Hyttinen. The new, tailor-made team has currently recorded their second studio album creating their highly anticipated Victory Records debut full-length album, titled "Featuring: Dr.Gruesome And The Gruesome Gory Horror Show".

Frontman vocalist Jeremy Thirteen took the time to discuss their current time in the U.S. with the numerous touring that they have done so far and how much more that can take and have planned for this year!

Jeremy: It takes us all around 40 minutes to do.

7. For your stage set up you of course have props, you have the banners with the band's name on it, but once a tour or show is over, where do those props go, like if you keep them at your house do you set them up showing off?

Jeremy: The banners we're using now will stay here in America.

8. Aside from those props will we be seeing an actual Dr. Gruesome roaming on stage?

Snow White's Poison Bite has released a new video for their song "Will You Meet Me In The Graveyard?" off their follow-up release to previous release, "The Story Of Kristy Killings", called "Dr. Gruesome and the Gruesome Gory Horror Show". You can also check them on tour this summer HERE. Check out the video below!



Breaking the ground as one of Finland's very first "screaming hardcore" bands around the group known as of 2007 as Snow White's Poison Bite. Since then the band has released two EPs under a small Finnish label, Poko Records then following this lead to them being signed with Sound Of Finland's Hyeena Trax leading to their debut release, "The Story Of Kristy Killings". Now that all eyes were on them there was no turning back.

As most bands do they underwent a drastic lineup change in early May 2011. Leaving band-founder, vocalist Allan Cotterill, as the only original member. Determined to keep his fans happy and the band alive, Allan went to work, searching for new members to create a new and improved band.

Fast forward to today's terms of the band and it consists of Allan “Jeremy Thirteenth” Cotterill, guitarist Tuomo “Tupi” Raisanen, bassist Hannu “Bobo” Saarimaa and drummer Niko "Hoker Dine" Hyttinen. This new and improved set has been hard at work writing and recorded for their follow-up and second studio album release but first under their new label home, Victory Records. This highly anticipated debut was titled "Featuring: Dr. Gruesome And The Gruesome Gory Horror Show".

The album featuring a classic icon that matches the material being said quite well, Michael Graves of The Misfits came forth to offer his vocal skills on "Zombie Romance". An added touch that suited them so well in fact it brought back an era known as the 50s, a time of doo-wop bands, hence the brief mellow intro this song plays out having a line of lyrics "So I took her to the movies, walked her through the park, she, she wants to kiss me, so I gave it a shot" sounds awfully like the Murderdoll's tune of "Teenage Zombie" except their lyrics went  "I took her to the movies, And I took her to the park, I took her in the back-seat, And that's where she stole my heart" listen and compare two for yourselves and you be the judge.

Aside from that, the band went on to release two singles, "The Gruesome Gory Horror Show", followed by “Will You Meet me in The Graveyard?” each of which brings back the same formula as what was done before except it sounds heavier, impressive, and brutally fangtastic! The lyrics fall between the lines as they previously had done sounding nothing out of the ordinary for these guys whatsoever.

All in all Snow White's Poison Bite has followed-up fangtastically well and even further mayhem will develop in the next chapter, of their gruesome gory career.

Norwegians Reverse This Curse is post-hard and rock from the Norway dimension thus their musical tastes takes a toll on the listener having similarities and guest appearances being quite frank i.e. former frontman of harcore goth rockers I Am Ghost Steven Juilano and current project Requiem for the Dead, took his shot at being the apart of the band's current single called "Another Victim".

As soon as the music begins I Am Ghost and Requiem for the Dead are what come to mind using the same formula as they have done, guitar riffs, solos, drum patterns, vocal chords, it all fits in well into what Reverse This Curse has made for themselves. Other similarities includes Escape The Fate, Snow White's Poison Bite, and Vampires Everywhere.

The music is creative and easily unique having a solid ground for a fresh start and fans will surely not be too far behind.
