	4th U.S. Artillery Regimental Brass Band
		Although regimental bands were abolished early in the Civil War, many regiments contrived to keep their bands together throughout the war, from the firing on Fort Sumter to the Surrender at Appomattox.
		Any band concert was an occasion in the 19th century, and it was considered only proper to wear the dress uniform, with its brass shoulder scales, horsehair plumes, brass buttons, and yards of trim in red, which is the branch color for the artillery.
		The army bands were smaller than we would now expect, with the specification of "12 musicians and 2 drummers." Drummers were not considered musicians, because each company of 100 men had 2 drummers to give "calls" or signals for moving, maneuvering, and firing during battle.

		Town bands were manned by members of the watch and were integral to both the civic and social life of the community.
		As the town band began to decline at the end of the 17th cent., its official duties gradually shifted to the military band.
		For several centuries the general composition of the military band remained static, the fife and drum being associated with the infantry and the trumpet and kettledrum with the cavalry.

	Nocturnal Horde - All Reviews
		The guitar work on this album is killer to say the least as well as innovative, Artillery were one of the first bands in the genre to tune their guitars down to "D".
		Artillery's tight performances have no doubt been a major influence on the newer Scandinavian thrash scene as well as influencing older bands worldwide.
		Artillery is one of those bands, from what I've heard, is one of those bands that are in the middle: fairly original material but gets tiresome after a few listens.

		4) The Band was originally the 11th Artillery Band but prior to the departure of the Regiment for France a number of the bandsmen were transferred back to the defenses and an equal number of men from the Connecticut Coast Artillery Band was transferred to the 56th Regiment Band.
		Alternate concerts by the bands of the 56th and 59th helped relieve the tension that came from daily wearing of life preservers and that even the arrival of the convoying destroyers, in the danger zone, could not remove.
		During this period it was estimated that 3,000 pieces of artillery of all caliber's (75 to 320mm) were in action.

	Civil War Bands and Their Music
		This is the first of three selections for band presented on this recording that were intended not as concert showpieces but rather as functional music for amateur bands of as few as six players.
		The percussion parts in these amateur band arrangements seem generally to have been written with the assumption that the drums were played by the feeblest musicians.
		Good bands, however, had good drummers, and good drummers would quite probably have embellished their parts if they were too dull.

		The band sports tons of mosh beats, great thrash riffs, plenty of speedy solos, and unique vocals that are an equal mix of growl and melody.
		Unfortunately the band's first demo titled, "We Are the Dead" (1982) is not represented at all.
		I'd put this one the same level with bands like Kreator, which is a high honor in my opinion.

	Brass Band Reference - Cornish Brass Bands
		There was a town band in existence when this volunteer unit was formed, yet at the enrolment parade if 1859 another village band was engaged and immediately afterwards this new volunteer company had a band, so it is a reasonable assumption that the Callington Town Band were among the potential recruits, sans instruments.

		This artillery unit was in operation long before the 1859 reorganisation, and their band was involved with the St Ives, Truro and Helston Volunteer Bands at the opening of the West Cornwall Railway in 1852.

	Royal Artillery Band Biography - famous Royal Artillery Band Classical collection and Royal Artillery Band Music ...
		The Royal Artillery Band had their “drum and fife” as long ago as 1557, but it was the need for a “band of musik” in the regiment that led to the formation of the Royal Artillery Band in 1762.
		Today’s band employs over fifty musicians who, in keeping with tradition, must be accomplished on both orchestral and wind band instruments.
		The band may appear on one day as a symphonic wind band, one of the largest in the British army, the next as a marching unit, and at another time as a full symphony orchestra, the oldest established in England.
