PureVolume

We are a brutal metal trio from Portland OR that started back in the summer of 2004 when CJ and David worked out twelve songs in about 3 months time. Around May of 2005 Karl (bass) and Nick (vocals) joined the band. We played our first show with this line up on Nov. 5th 2005 and two other shows in early 2006. In March of 2006 we parted ways with Karl but our neighbor from down the street, Jacob, picked up the bass and learned the songs in one month right before our April 20th show at the Ash Street Saloon. The next month we spent finalizing demo recordings we had been sitting on and released our first 9 song demo. Then we played various venues in and around Portland which included such bands as; Incantation, Internal Suffering, Year of Desolation, Forever in Terror and Cerberus. After that summer we decided to record a good quality EP. So we went to Chris Finster who works out of Geomana Studios here in Portland. He recorded seven tracks with the four of us and we almost released the CD as a four piece but things weren't working out with our singer, Nick, and in Jan. of 2007 he played his last show with us at the Hawthorne Theater. Soon after that Jacob wrote and recorded new lyrics with Chris in under a month and our EP was released at our April 20th show at the Satyricon where we debuted as a three piece. At the beginning of summer 2007 we played the 4th Annual Metal Fest in Garwood Idaho which featured eighteen metal bands from all around the North West. After that we remained quite active through the summer of 2007 playing local shows and creating new material. We all like to keep busy and challenge ourselves when it comes to playing our instruments. So we'll continue to create raw brutality and keep sickening the brains of all who listen.
