Dublin Death Patrol ( DDP ) is an American thrash metal band formed in 2006 by Testament singer Chuck Billy and former Legacy (initial name of Testament) and Exodus singer Steve Souza .
history
The band initially consisted of seven and consisted of the singers Souza and Chuck Billy, Chuck's brother Andy Billy, Greg Bustamante and Steve Robello on electric guitars, bassist Willy Lange and drummer Dan Cunningham. During the recording of the debut album in 2007, three more members joined: Troy Luccketta on drums, Steve Souza's brother John Souza on bass and guitarist Phil Demmel . After the album was completed, bassist Eddie Billy, also brother of Chuck Billy, joined as the eleventh member.
After the album was released, some local appearances followed, so that the band consisted of eight members: Chuck Billy and Steve Souza as singers, Willy Lange as bassist, Andy Billy, Steve Robello, Greg Bustamante and John Hartsinck on guitars, and Danny Cunningham on the drums.
For the tours for the release of the album, not all members could participate, so the group consisted of Chuck Billy and Souza, bassist John Souza, drummer Dan Cunningham, guitarists Andy Billy and Greg Bustamante, and as a special guest guitarist John Hartsinck. A short time later, John Hartsinck would take Phil Demmel's place (although it looks more as if he took Steve Robello's place and he took Demmel's post).
In 2011 the band performed at the Graspop Metal Meeting .
So far, the band has released two albums through Mascot Records : In 2007 the debut album DDP 4 Life and 2012 the next album Death Sentence .
style
The band plays classic Thrash Metal, reminiscent of the old works of Testament and Exodus.
