First Jason, the unrelenting horror metal force fronted by Friday the 13th icon Ari Lehman, has officially joined the roster of CDN Records, marking a major milestone in their ascent through the heavy music underground.
Led by Lehman—who famously portrayed the original Jason Voorhees—First Jason fuses cinematic horror and sonic fury into an experience unlike any other. Now wielding a keytar like a machete, Lehman channels his on-screen menace into explosive live performances that are melting faces and redefining horror metal.
Formed in 2004, First Jason has torn across stages in the US, UK, and Europe, forging a fiercely loyal cult following through their raw energy, DIY attitude, and boundary-pushing sound. The band’s fusion of horror theatrics, jazz-trained musicianship, punk aggression, and world music influences makes them a true standout in today’s metal scene.
A classically trained pianist and NYU alum, Lehman brings a deep well of musical knowledge—spanning jazz, reggae, and Afrobeat—to First Jason’s unique sound. Their résumé includes sharing the stage with heavyweights like Ice Nine Kills, Avatar, In This Moment, Incantation, and Twiztid.
With CDN Records behind them, First Jason is set to unleash their next chapter of chaos—louder, darker, and more brutal than ever.
Stay heavy. Support the underground. Long live metal.
