Five Pointe O

Chicago rap metallist Five Pointe O features Casey Mejia on keyboards, Daniel Struble handling vocals, Eric Wood on guitars, Sean Pavey on bass, Sharon Grzelinski also on guitars, and Tony Starcevich at the drums. Prior to 2001 the six-piece act had already put out two recordings, including a four-song self-titled EP and the full-length The Other Side, which helped them cultivate a regional audience throughout the Midwest on the strength of their rage-filled rap. Five Pointe O joined the Roadrunner roster in 2001, issuing their debut album the following spring.
