House of Heroes creates a unique and new breed of music: verging on the safe line of pop-punk rock and blending the dangerousness of indie-style rock. They are composed of members Tim Skipper (lead vocals, guitar), A.J. Babcock (bgv’s and bass), Colin Rigsby (bgv’s and drums), and Jared Rigsby (bgv’s and guitar).
House of Heroes doesn’t just sing songs, they tell stories. Songs like “In the Valley of the Dying Sun”(telling a version of the story of Jacob in the bible) and “Code Name: Raven”(the story of a spy in the time of World War II) draw listeners in by setting stories of love, sacrifice, and war to a non-specific song set-up and engaging music. Other songs, like “Friday Night”, “Faces”, or “The Drugs the Drugs” show the emptiness of man’s meaningless desires. Distinguished lyrics and music that backs it up, pushing it forward, give listeners a unique experience. A band not scared of being different, House of Heroes certainly distinguishes themselves from the bunch.
Releases include: “What You Want Is Now”, with tracks like “Julia”, “The Lead Role In The Cage”, and strings-backed “Uncomfortable” make the album House of Heroes’s most rock-lead album. Self- titled “House of Heroes” and “Say No More” ( a re-release of the first with extra songs) posess the most edgy, indie-rock sound, lead by songs “Buckets For Bullet Wounds”, “Serial Sleepers”, “You Are the Judas of the Cheerleading Squad”, and 9 minute closer “Angels In Top Hats.

I'm not Christian. In fact, I'm not in the least way supportive of the Christian faith and their followers. Why do I love this artist so much?
