Picture Me Broken formed in Los Angeles in 2008, starting with Adam Metts on vocals and guitar, Nick Brong on bass, and Davin Perales on drums. The lineup shifted over time, with guitarist Matt Eastwood joining at some point and Brong eventually leaving. They put out their first album, 'For This We Stand,' in 2010.
That debut included 'Nothing Further From The Truth,' which got some attention. Their songs like 'Beautiful Disguise' and 'Devil On My Shoulder' show the kind of heavy, melodic rock they were doing. They released a few more records after that, including 'The Truth and the Bones' in 2012 and 'Desolation Rain' in 2014.
The band dealt with some internal tensions and label issues along the way, which isn't unusual for groups trying to make it work. They kept putting out music through it, with 'Scars' arriving in 2017. Their catalog has a straightforward, guitar-driven sound that found listeners who connected with it.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
