Eight Gigs: Conducting from the Grave

Conducting from the Grave, a longtime Sacramento metal band, announced the release of its new self-titled album in 2013 and in turn, found its dedicated fans were in full support of this venture. With the help of Kickstarter, CFTG raised more than $15,000 within one month toward the album (out now), making this the band's first self-released work. The guys strayed from the metalcore and hardcore genres and plunged deeper into the realms of death metal with the release. After forming in 2003 and surviving various lineup changes and a semi-permanent hiatus, CFTG ascended from the dead in 2009 with the release of When Legends Become Dust on Sumerian Records. 9426 Greenback Lane, www.facebook.com/
