Showbread is a Raw Rock band from Guyton, Georgia. They are signed to Tooth and Nail Records. They are known for their spastic vocals and energetic live shows. They are also one of the few bands of their genre to use a keytar. They tend to change their style of music from one album to the next. The band had two full time vocalists until Ivory Mobley’s departure in 2007. Josh Dies, the band’s primary vocalist, is also an author, penning The Spinal Cord Perception and The Insect. Showbread gained media attention when, in 2006, a fan made video for the song “Dead By Dawn” was featured on YouTube. The video was seen by the band and posted on their own site, giving rise to controversy over Showbread’s lyrical themes. According to Matt Davis, the band’s name comes from “a biblical reference that Jesus used to show how Christianity isn’t so much about rules but about love.”
Showbread is known for giving ridiculous statements in the press and in interviews. Most interviews, regardless of purpose, vary from nonsense to outright absurdity, becoming serious only when answering questions dealing with their faith. They have made many absurd claims, ranging from the accusations that Blindside’s members are vampire, werewolf, and zombie hunters, to accusations that Pillar’s band members are made of grass clipping. Despite the nature of many of these statements, it appears they were meant to be taken in a light-hearted manner.
Very open with their Christianity, the group has even been known to point out that the only serious things they will say during their set are those that deal with their beliefs.

A/N was just too weird. I realize it was something different, but i just didn't like it as much as i felt i should have. After listening to fear of god, i believe they are getting back on track, which makes me happy. I also agree no sir is the best

Matthias Replaces Judas is the only song of theirs I can stand. Mostly because of Reese. The rest of their stuff, to me, is utter and complete crap.

Um... The Refused? (International) Noise Conspiracy? They definitely coped their sound from Refused (not that it matters to me, having obvious influences doesn't make the songs poor, just recognizable as to where they are coming from). As for Raw Rock, they were obsessed with using the word Raw to describe something good and when they were asked what type of music they made, they said Raw Rock, and it stuck.

Showbread is one of those rare bands where when someone asks "who they sound like", you don't really know what to say; & i love it.
