As Sick As Us! The heavy metal band that fills venues to capacity and then tears them down brick by brick!

The band started playing gigs at private parties then progressed to yard/block parties. Then... finally in 2008 ASAU was able to book a show at The Boiler Room, a new and upcoming venue in downtown Asheville. Located in the historic Grove Building The Boiler Room quickly became the night spot to be at for live music in Asheville.

After 'paying our dues' and playing some pretty dead middle of the week shows, the venue liked what they heard and started letting ASAU play Friday and Saturday night slots. In a short amount of time the word spread and with the help of our friends and the local musical community, the crowds started to grow! Before we knew what was happening ASAU was filling the venue and the house was moshing...

In a short time the band was playing regular gigs around town at various night spots. ASAU then started branching out to other venues in the region in North and South Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee.

Our fan base continues to grow and we now have regular bookings out to three months in advance. ASAU continues to practice hard to refine their art and to bring you the best sounding melodic death metal music possible.

We don't want to be just another death metal band- We want to be the best & tightest sounding death metal band like no other- Nothing less will do. We demand a lot from ourselves and our sound at live shows proves it. You decide for yourself, come to a show and tell us what you think- We'll listen and try to make it better for you...

We ask for your support and encouragement so that we might realize our dream of becoming successful performing artists that our families will be proud of... (corny sounding yes, but true...)
