Biography
Upon forming in October 1993, French deathsters SCARVE birthed an
intricate, dark & brutal brand of extremity. After releasing a demo,
MCD & debut album "Translucence", the six-piece signed a worldwide
deal with Listenable Records in 2001. The resulting sophomore effort
"Luminiferous" took SCARVE's very own futuristic sound to new heights,
allowing the band to embark on a series of festivals & shows throughout
Europe, including a tour with NILE. But it was the critically acclaimed
2004 audio missile "Irradiant" that really stuck SCARVE's flag on the
metal map, earning them a spot on world famous festivals such as
Graspop, Tuska Open Air & Waldrock.
Swedish masterminds MESHUGGAH even handpicked the band as the only
support act on their European trek. Now these purveyors of modern
brutality are back with "The Undercurrent"! Erupting track after
unique track of ferocious, weaving, blastbeat-fueled madness, this
mind-blowing slab of modern death metal sees SCARVE explore their art
to the max. Armed with an explosive sound courtesy of longtime
producer Daniel Bergstrand (MESHUGGAH, STRAPPING YOUNG LAD, SOILWORK)
& stunning vocals by Lawrence Mackrory (vocalist on DARKANE's classic
"Rusted Angel" album) & brilliant drumming by Dirk Verbeuren (SOILWORK,
ex-ABORTED), there is simply no way of avoiding the technical whirlwind
that is "The Undercurrent". Innovative brutal metal, think DEVIN TOWNSEND
/ STRAPPING YOUNG LAD & MESHUGGAH in a death metal way!
