In 2007 Chad Gerber temporarily relocated from Los Angeles California to Montana
with his band Korben in order to tour hard to hit areas in the midwest. After
connecting with a local music store to find a drummer for those tours, Chad was
given the number of a student at the nearby college named Chad McKinsey "AKA
2012".
Shortly after a few tours, the band dissolved. Chad Gerber approached 2012 about
his "Suicide Denial Project" and began collaborating with him. Having worked on
projects with multiplatinum selling artists like Aloe Blacc, Tooth and Nail
Recording artists, and members of Guns N Roses, the duo was fully prepared to
begin working on their new musical direction they dubbed "Ghetto Sample Rock".
They began recording in the small college studio, sneaking in nightly to work on
their new project. Within a few months of recording they signed with Divulge
Records to produce their first full length album I'm Sorry LA. Chad Gerber
returned back to Los Angeles shortly after, while 2012 finished his education in
Montana, flying back and fourth between the two states during the final stages
of the recording process.
The band received an overwhelming response to the album, creating buzz in
college newspapers, national music publications, blogs, and radio. As the rest
of the music industry struggled to grab financially strapped listeners, The
Suicide Denial thrived off giving away their music in the economic downturn and
quickly grew their fan base across the US, Europe, Australia, and parts of
China.
In 2010 The Suicide Denial toured to promote their favorite charity Faceless
International and the release of their music video for "I'm Sorry LA". Funds
from select shows went towards sending a team with The Suicide Denial into Haiti
to provide hydration packets to combat the cholera outbreak and to build homes
for earth quake victims near the tent cities. In 2011 The Suicide Denial
released their 2nd full length album We'll Go Down Fighting followed by a tour
with the Vans Warped Tour. Currently The Suicide Denial is tentatively preparing
for 2012 dates in the UK.
