Biography

Wasted Theory was born in July 2012, and raised in the Northern Mid-Atlantic salt air states of Delaware and Maryland. Fronted by Larry Jackson, Jr. on vocals and guitar, Brendan Burns on drums, guitarist Andrew Petkovic and bassist Corey Pettingill, this heavy rock outfit conjures inspiration from several of the most hard-hitting, dirty blue collar, beefed up rock n’ roll acts of the past 40 years. With influences like Artimus Pyledriver, Orange Goblin, Corrosion of Conformity, and Nazareth, the result is a guaranteed truck-ton of boot stomping heavy music. In 2014, Wasted Theory released their first full-length album “Death and Taxes”, receiving high praise and much acclaim from the patron stoner rock and doom metal music journalists all over the globe. During a full two years of touring in support of their first full length release, these riff roaring metal soldiers managed to write and record their sophomore full-length album “Defenders of the Riff”. Released in October 2016, “Defenders of the Riff” is a behemoth of testosterone-driven, southern fuzzed biker rock. With accolades pouring in from every heavy rock and metal music enthusiast to catch whiff of Wasted Theory’s riffs, these burly bad asses are wasting no time in getting back on the road to destroy every eardrum in their path to ascension. Catch Wasted Theory on tour in 2017, and get your metal hordes ready for American weed rock’s Defenders of the Riff.
