6S is a band with a history of brotherhood, faith, and destiny. Growing up in a Boston suburb in their early teens, they started a cellar-trio and immediately began writing their own songs, playing benefit gigs and talent-shows through the end of high-school. Though the band gained much local notoriety, each began to feel they were going in different directions musically, and the band eventually had a woeful but necessary break-up.
For years, each took his own separate path, exploring and working on new projects. Mike was gigging the Boston club circuit in many different bands. Derek was recording a solo album. Worm was nearly signed to Sony records when his new band showcased against "SilverChair" for a record contract. However, as time wore on, all their musical endeavors slowed to a crawl.
But suddenly, there was a moment when a brand new idea for a band suddenly sprung forth: A band with fearless originality, explosive energy, surprising versatility, and unmistakable showmanship. It just so happens that in that moment, fate was such that all three were available and anxious to try it. The timing was so strangely perfect that everything that was once impossible now easily fell into place, with the only reasonable explanation being was that it just was meant to be. Against all odds, the band was miraculously reunited.
While recording their debut CD, the new band with the new angle was looking for a new name to call themselves. One night when the band was practicing in their rented rehearsal room, they were discussing potential band names. Upon shooting down every single name idea, they all noticed the number on the door of their rehearsal room. Worm said - "6S.....sounds like success". AND SO 6S WAS BORN!
The band then only needed another guitarist to round out and enforce their sound. After many auditions, the band decided to recruit the experienced Donnie, formerly of the Boston-based band "Man Down". With the lineup now complete as a quartet, 6S was now ready to take the rock scene by storm with a show, a sound, and an image that must be experienced!

You know given the album cover and the fact that this was an independently released album, I sure wasn't prepared for something that smokes most mainstream pop-rock outfits. 6S is based out of Boston and are gleefully abandoning straight-forward pop for the stadium-moving anthems of power-pop. Crusader opens up with a song so damn catchy it could be an instant gold-certified single. And it doesn't stop there! The whole freakin album is catchy and infectious and could be the end result of listening to a whole lot of
Axl Rose and Weezer. I tell ya, this is one 6S-ful (couldn't resist!) band that some label needs to swoop up before the competition does!

Boston pop rockers 6S may be headed for the dollar signs if this CD is any indication. They have a solid grasp on the retro-influenced rock that has fueled the success of bands like Click Five and Jet, but they have a distinctive songwriting personality that serves notice they are not holding onto anyone's coattails. Wealthy Man snarls with gritty guitar power while Throw Me A Line has Beatles' touches. Their astonishing vocal harmonies are the crowning touch.
