Background notes
Archive material and source history
War of Words formed in Los Angeles in 2001 with vocalist Ian Engler, guitarist Mike Tarsi, bassist Pat Degruchy, and drummer Anthony Martini. Their sound pulled from punk, metal, and grunge, landing somewhere between aggression and melody. Their debut album in 2003 included the track "...And You Will Die Alone," which found an audience and became something of an anthem.
They put out several more albums over the next decade, like "Suffer Our Pleasures" in 2005 and "Internal War" in 2010. The lineup shifted over time, with Engler remaining as the constant voice. Songs like "A Light At The End Of The Tunnel" and "False Hopes" kept to their style of direct, often dark lyricism.
Engler has been open about dealing with depression and anxiety, and that personal terrain has shaped much of the band's material. Their live shows are known for being intense and physical, which has helped them maintain a dedicated following through the years.
