A fierce trio formed in Mexico City, who’ve made Los Angeles their home, RUSTY EYE takes heavy metal storytelling to new heights of cinematic glory, passionately blending seemingly disparate styles into a unique mosaic, devoid of easy-to-spot seams. Theatrical epics and pissed off rock n’ roll collide. The RUSTY EYE sound gobbles up prog, thrash, punk, blackened death, and synthwave, all squeezed through a keyhole of grindhouse grime that utterly defies simplified classifications. The essential elements of “the three Ms” – Misfits, Motörhead, and Iron Maiden – have been there since the band’s earliest rumblings. But there is so much more in play, from gentle undertones of The Cure and Depeche Mode, to the NWOBHM to even the picking style of Norwegian black metal, without sounding overly complicated or confused. RUSTY EYE never emulates any one genre. It’s just purely Rust N’ Roll. They are also known to be the backing band for famed Mexican musician and filmmaker Sergio Arau, who hired RUSTY EYE to be his backing band. RUSTY EYE consistently defies expectations, boundaries, and trends, with the same drive of sweat and self-sufficiency that first ignited the band in Mexico City. The RUSTY EYE experience is a wild theme park ride of thrills, chills, and mischievous mayhem, stuffed with the theatricality and cleverness that keeps heavy metal music timeless, iconic, enduring, and gleefully reinvigorating.
