BIOGRAPHY
EVRA is na Danish hardcore/stoner band from Copenhagen, Denmark, which officially formed in 2013. Their musical style is rooted in hardcore punk with strong stoner rock and mathcore elements. They have garnered critical and fan acclaim for their high energy, intense live shows. EVRA has been rapidly gaining popularity across Europe in countries including Germany, Belgium, and Estonia.
Only 2 years into their existence, the ambitious Copenhagen quintet EVRA are preparing to release their debut full length “L...IGHTBEARER”. The release will take place the 19th of september 2015. The album was recorded and mixed by Lewis Johns at The Ranch Production House in Southampton, England and mastered by Brad Boatwright at Audio Siege in Portland, Oregon. The record is the vessel for the band’s aspirations towards making a lasting name for themselves abroad as much as in Denmark, enlisting the services of professionals that have formerly worked with internationally renowned bands like Funeral For A Friend, Code Orange, Defeater, Sleep and Converge (to name a few). The release will also feature artwork by Plastic Kid aka. Jakob Printzlau, whose videos and artwork have previously helped define the visual identities of bands like Bring Me The Horizon, Volbeat and I Killed The Prom Queen.
Stylistically, EVRA aim to fuse the qualities of two genres that have enjoyed widespread respect and popularity in the heavy music scenes of recent years: Stoner and hardcore. Citing influences from Black Sabbath, Pallbearer and Graveyard over to Gallows, Every Time I Die and Brutality Will Prevail, the band’s sound marries heavy, yet groovy riffage to the punishing tempos and urgent energy of chaotic hardcore shows. Focus is on songwriting that is both catchy and straight to the point, and “LIGHTBEARER” delivers 9 tracks of the band’s unique brand of ferocity in 30 short but sweet minutes.
