Bed Of Nailz was a hardcore band formed by singer Eric Pleska and a few local friends from White Plains, NY in the summer of 2001. The initial lineup of Eric, Carlos Torres, and Ed Massena recorded an album a month after formation at Prime Time Studios in Pelham, NY.

Dan Paprocki soon joined the band, however Carlos and Ed departed shortly after due to college commitments. Eric and Dan continued Bed Of Nailz with new members Mike Conklin and Tomislav. Before disbanding in 2003, Bed Of Nailz played live shows in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, in addition to releasing a total of six albums.
