Career

Rigor Mortis

In the late 1980s, Bright joined the Texas thrash metal band Rigor Mortis , with whom he released the “Freaks” EP in 1989 and the album “Rigor Mortis Vs. in 1991”. The Earth ”recorded as a singer. In retrospect, bassist Casey Orr described Bright's performance as "excellent" ( English he was kick-ass ). But since various things were hampering the band's success and nothing moved for too long, Doyle moved in 1991 "to Atlanta or Birmingham or wherever he came from" (Orr).

Hallows Eve

Until he joined Hallows Eve , a thrash metal band from Atlanta , in 2007, no releases with other bands are known. As a guitarist he recorded the album "The Neverending Sleep" - together with founding members Stacy Andersen (vocals) and Tommy Stewart (bass) - which he also recorded as a producer . It was first self-published in 2008, before being re -released in 2016 on the Floga Records label .

Special Ops Group

Since nothing happened at Hallows Eve for a long time and no concerts were played, Bright started looking for musicians from Atlanta in 2014 to found the band Special Ops Group (SOG), where he is responsible for vocals and lead guitar. His colleagues include u. a. former Hallows-Eve drummer Dane Jensen. The band independently recorded their debut album "The Gift Of Aggression" in 2015 and played their first show in the same year on the main stage of the Full Terror Assault Festival (with Eyehategod , Misery Index and Obituary, among others ). The band later signed a contract with Violent Creek Records , where the album "God Complex" was released in 2017, which was distributed via Soulfood . Bright was entirely responsible for the songwriting on both albums.
