BIO:
DIRE PERIL was an idea that goes as far back as Jason Ashcraft's (guitars, bass) high school years. The band's name was inspired by a PC game he used to play, called "Vampire: The Masquerade ' Bloodline", which has stuck with him ever since.
Originally formed in 2009, the band went on to create three EPs: Astronomical Minds, Queen of the Galaxy and Through Time and Space, and proceeded to play a handful of local shows, as well as a few out of town gigs. In 2015, feeling like things just weren't as they should be, Ashcraft decided to take a step back and take a hard look at where the band was headed.
Inspired by all manner of science fiction, especially classic sci-fi movies, DIRE PERIL regrouped as a double piece; Ashcraft was joined by singer John Yelland, and together they began working on the debut album titled The Extraterrestrial Compendium, set for release on November 9, 2018. Recruiting a live line up enabled them to start playing live shows including an upcoming North American tour with SEVEN KINGDOMS allowing the American sci-fi power metal band to reach its final form and share their dark, aggressive adventure with the masses.
"DIRE PERIL prove that America still has great talent in the Power Metal realm" ' Metal-Temple
"a wonderful album that will take you on an intergalactic journey through many popular sci fi movies. It is an album that is full of melodic vocals and kick ass guitars. " - Baby Dolls and Razor Blades
