Backstory:
Incredible Anger emerged from the hard-knock streets of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The band was formed by four high school friends in 2005, who found a common outlet to vent their frustrations and emotions through music. The band includes lead vocalist and bassist Dave ‘Destructive’ Thompson, guitarist Paul ‘Pulverizer’ Riggs, drummer Steve ‘Storm’ Reynolds, and keyboardist Mark ‘Meltdown’ Davis. Their shared experiences of hardship and the struggle to rise above their circumstances resulted in an authentic, raw sound that resonated with fans across the globe.
The band’s breakout performance came in 2006 at a local battle of the bands contest, where they stole the show and won over a music producer in the audience. Their victory led to a contract with an indie label, and they haven’t looked back since. Incredible Anger’s journey has been far from easy, but their passion, grit, and talent have carved their niche in music history.

Burning Bridges
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Em G
Down the path, I see the flames,
D C
Burning bridges in my name.
Em G
Tears of sorrow, rage, and pain,
D C
This is the game, the price of fame.
(Chorus)
G D
Incredible anger, fueling my fire,
Em C
Lost in the mire.
G D
Burning bridges, no return,
Em C
Lessons learned, bridges burned.
(Verse 2)
Em G
Fights and fury, all we know,
D C
Echoes in the afterglow.
Em G
Shadows dancing in the night,
D C
In the ashes, we find our light.
(Chorus)
G D
Incredible anger, stoking the flame,
Em C
Life’s not a game.
G D
Burning bridges, we stand tall,
Em C
From the fall, we recall.
(Bridge)
G D
Lost, but we’re found,
Em C
In the chaos, the sound.
G D
Stand in the fire,
Em C
Climb higher and higher.
(Chorus)
G D
Incredible anger, lighting the way,
Em C
Burning the gray.
G D
Burning bridges, we won’t tire,
Em C
In the anger, we inspire.
