My favorite performance of the night came from End Of An Era. Unfortunately this band’s set was placed later in the schedule.
And maybe the fact that this band still played recklessly, still thrashed around the stage without regard, and still gave a shit despite small audience, was the most endearing aspect of the performance. That, and End Of An Era’s ability to fuse heavy Thrash-Metal verses with big, sing along choruses made this set a joy to be a part of. - Speak into my Good Eye
End of an Era rocked the Brighton Bar's stage hard at Metromix's third round of the BreakThru band competition on Thursday, Dec. 2. The electro-rock group from Toms River brought a power-punch, crowd-pleasing presence to the night, performing like pros. Their hard-rock tunes radiated through the venue with force -- capturing the full attention of the judges and fans. End of an Era will be moving on to the finals in March with Carpet Ride and Our Last Sin for a shot at the $30,000 jackpot.

Bio
Hailing from the infamous Jersey Shore, End of an Era is an alternative rock band that serves as a sonic right hook to Snooki’s face. Mixing equal parts of Nine Inch Nails, Muse, and AFI…the band has been taking not only New Jersey, but the entire northeast by storm since 2006. With Jeff Wallace, Jeff Spags, Chris Matsinger and Derek Jesse, End of an Era had a killer lineup and went to work on the local scene. Not long after, End of an Era had amassed a rabid fanbase and began to hit the road. From countless tours of the eastern US to playing for 30,000 people at Giant’s Stadium to festival dates in Brazil…End of an Era has accomplished much more in a few years as a DIY band than many label bands do in an entire career.
