Society Burning

Daveoramma began recording music in 1991 under the name "Watchmen" while at New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, NM. As an instructor of recording arts at the university, Dave had unfettered access to the university's 16-track recording studio where he met Boom chr Paige who was recording for a band called Your Mother. Boom provided guitar work and other musical support during the production of Watchmen's first release, Is God in Showbusiness Too?.

That first release resonated with fans of electronic music near and far, including San Diego’s Chase (then of Cargo Records, soon to be overlord of the seminal Re-constriction label). Chase included the track ‘Merciful Release’ on the Cyberflesh Conspiracy compilation from If It Moves… Records, which began a partnership that would span over the next decade.

In 2017 Dave and Twitch enlisted the help of two long-time friends, John Holder and Duffy Laudick, to begin performing live shows in the Denver, CO area. They quickly proved themselves to be invaluable creative partners in the studio and co-writing material and became full time members of the band.

2019 saw the release of Synthcore Dreams Vol 1 & 2, a benefit comic book and Soundtrack, featuring the song “Stand in L1ne” and a fictionalized Dave, Boom and Twitch alongside dozens of other industrial musicians locked in a slapstick battle with a post-apocalyptic recording label.

During the COVID-19 quarantine of 2020 there was finally time to finish older songs and write new material culminating in 2021’s Ready End User.
