Casino Madrid

Casino Madrid was a post-hardcore band from San Diego, California, United States. Casino Madrid is the latest band to join the Artery Recordings roster, the joint venture between The Artery Foundation and Razor & Tie. The San Diego band is the ninth addition to the Artery Recordings family. "We couldn't be more excited to join the Artery Recordings family," DeMaio said. "We felt as a band that this label was the best fit for us, not only because of its reputable name in the industry, but because of the family oriented attitude everyone at Artery presents to their bands." "We're very pleased to welcome Casino Madrid to the Artery Recordings family. We've had our eye on the band for quite some time and they've been making waves in San Diego that are undeniable," said Eric Rushing, CEO of The Artery Foundation. "The guys have an amazing batch of new songs that we can't wait to get out to everyone!" Comprised of Joe Demaio (vocals), Marcelo Sedano (guitar/vocals), Armani Sanchez (guitar), Travis Knutz (bass), Rob Cesena (keys/synth/programming) and Johnny Thunder (drums), Casino Madrid formed in 2007. In 2009, the band released their self-produced EP, For Kings and Queens, which has sold over 20,000 digital tracks. The EP got re-released in 2010 with 3 extra songs, and in 2011 through Razor and Tie, Artery Recordings, the band released their full-length Robots.
