-Cadaver Inc.-

Life-long Earache devotees will remember the band Cadaver from the early 90's Necrosis imprint label - Cadaver Inc is the brainchild of original guitarist Anders Odden, now going by the handle of Neddo. In those groundbreaking early days Cadaver formed part of the fledgling Norwegian metal underground, and were the first band to get signed outside of their native country. Signed to Earache imprint Necrosis, the band issued two of the very first extreme metal albums from the soon to be legendary Norwegian scene - 'Hallucinating Anxiety' 1990 and '...In Pains' 1992, and subsequently gigged hard with the likes of Darkthrone, Mayhem, Death, Cradle of Filth and Dissection

After the original bands demise, Anders spent most of the Nineties in highly successful Darkwave act Apoptygma Berzerk, before in 1999 he re-constructed the millennial edition Cadaver Inc as a breeding ground of sickness and depravity. His recent contributions to Satyricon's 'Rebel Extravaganza' and Mayhem's 'A Grand Declaration Of War' refreshed his interest in the extreme metal scene, and he looked to take the stuttering Black Metal forward by utilising its original basics - an uncompromising attitude, a raw sound, and a healthy disrespect for rules.

Joining Neddo in this immoral venture are hyperfast drummer Czral (ex-Dimmu Borgir, Dodheimsgard, Aura Noir), vocalist Apollyon (Aura Noir, Dodheimsgard) and LJ Balvaz on bass (trainspotters will remember the pre-Carnage act Hydrhydr.....)

Cadaver Inc is yet another in a long line of high quality Norwegian metal acts - where the original Cadaver paved the way for the Norwegian scene by opening the gates for bands like Emperor, Mayhem, Immortal, Satyricon, Enslaved and Dimmu Borgir in the early 90's, now Cadaver Inc is more than ready and ably equipped to pick up the challenge laid down by those bands during the intervening years.

The band's debut album, titled 'Discipline,' is released in Europe on April 16 and USA in early May. Featuring guest appearances from Fenriz (Darkthrone) on the track 'Rupture' and Faust (ex-Emperor), whose spoken word vocals on the track 'Killtech' were recorded from prison! 'Discipline' is a blunt post-black metal statement. Evading childish pre-occupation with Satanic imagery, 'Discipline' focuses on the crawling sewer life that is much of human society - the dank, cold corners of the disturbed mind, the brutal realism of a corrupted future.
