Mike Heremana is
Predator's Bass player extraordinaire. His unique aggressive
musical style provides the deep and hard driving sound for
this powerful metal unit. Armed with great musicianship,
Mike is one of the best bass players in the world of metal,
capable of ultra fast lines that do not linger in the
background, as most bass players. His “lead” bass style is a
perfect match to compliment the styles of Thorr and Meneses,
providing Predator with a string team that isn’t rivaled in
these days with disintegrating musical standards. He also
has a great voice and provides amazing vocal harmonies to
compliment Rick‘s voice. Mike also parcatices Martial Arts
and likes to perform Polenysian fire dances.

Darrin McNair is a
Florida born metal drummer with great speed and agility. He
adds a new dimension and texture to Predator's unique blend
of classical, flamenco and metal sounds with unforgiving
speed and power.
Although he taught himself how to play the drums, he did
take music theory classes in school. During that time he
began playing in local bands and made a name for himself.
Darrin was discovered by Damien during auditions after the
band placed an ad looking for a drummer. His unique ability
to pound the drum kit with amazing power immediately placed
him in the band to form the world's most unstoppable metal
band.

Together, these five rockers comprise
PREDATOR. Stalking as one, this pack has become a force in Heavy
Metal that simply cannot be denied. Their amazing talent, song
writing abilities and overall cool positive vibe will leave the
listener feeling enthusiastic and thinking more about their own
place in this world. Predator is best known for unleashing fast and
loud heavy metal with above average musical skills and very strong
lyrics which focus on social commentary. They have been compared to

Sabbath and Queensryche. You will never hear songs about evil,
drugs, fantasy, self-loathing or depression from these boys. These
amazing and powerful songs are positive mirrors of strength in the
world and feelings of self reliance and self worth abound! This
is... REALITY METAL... This is... PREDATOR!
