Emerging from the United States NJ/NYC area, Life Cried was founded & conceptualized by frontman/composer Chris Reject. Pushing the boundaries & deviating from the norms of the industrial/gothic music genre, their brutal sonic assaults, driving guitars & relentless aggression are tempered by profoundly introspective & heartfelt lyrics bolstered by soulful chorus/piano leads. Breaking the mold of the stereotypical “I wish I was evil” approach – merging heavy industrial electronics with alternative, goth rock & black metal elements, Life Cried is truly in a league of their own.

Reject’s on-stage charisma merges perfectly with his powerful compositions, creating the perfect storm of a dramatic backdrop for live performance. Honest, in your face & without regret, Life Cried has carved their own path into the future. Having toured in the USA & Europe playing in major music festivals & concerts alongside dozens of well-known gothic/industrial artists, Life Cried is among the few left-standing powerful live acts in the modern age.
