About Signs of the Swarm

Signs of the Swarm (or SOTS for short) is a Slamming Deathcore band hailing from Pittsburgh, PA.

The band consists of members Dave Simonich (Vocalist), Cory Smarsh (Guitarist), Jacob Toy (Guitarist), Bobby Crow (Bassist) and Jimmy Pino (Drummer).

In 2018, Frontman CJ McCreery announced his departure from SOTS to take over for Tom Barber of Lorna Shore.

Barber left Lorna Shore to join another band, Chelsea Grin, which left a sizable hole in Lorna Shore that McCreery filled perfectly.

Improvidence vocalist Dave Simonich filled the gigantic shoes McCreery left behind exceedingly well and in June of 2018, Simonich announced he will be filling in for McCreery full time (while also keeping his other band Improvidence docile, but alive). https://www.facebook.com/305844046175908/posts/1753758914717740/
