While Culprit's music is peppered with some more modern aspects of rock, their foundation is straight- up heavy metal- the screams alternating with growls, the requisite guitar solos and, of course, the hair. Because Culprit's music stays so true to its metal roots and therefore appeals to true metal fans, the trio is enjoying almost unheard of success for a band that seems to have materialized out of nowhere. ( They're from Hastings, Mi, actually; close enough. ) While Culprit often tours to places like New York and Sturgis Sd for 'BIKE WEEK', you maybe lucky enough to catch them preforming in MIchigan at places like Planet Rock in Battle Creek and the I-Rock in Detroit.Artical by: Recoil
