EXIVIOUS - Exivious [2009]

Fusionmetal - A relatively new and unexplored genre in the world of metal. Exivious, featuring ex-members of legendary US prog band Cynic and Dutch metallers Textures, Exivious isn’t an over the top math metal band and certainly isn’t a loungy jazz combo either. But expect everything in between!

With a jazzfusion backbone Exivious uses freaky metal riffs to decorate their organic eruption of free improvisations and complex rhythms. Guitarist Tymon comments: “We finally managed to transform a vision I had a long time ago into 9 intense and fiery songs. There’s an immense amount of information in there that will definitely take more than one spin in your CD player to comprehend!”

The band will release the album independently to preserve 100% creative freedom. This is not only evident in their music but also in the artwork. Their self titled debut will appear in a limited 1000 numbered copies, each single copy bundled with its own unique artwork.

Over the last 3 years, progressive death metal act THE YELLOW SIGN has slowly gained acclaim nationwide from both music fans and musicians for their signature sound and live show. The relentlessly DIY band has spread influence throughout the metal community, self-released 2 albums, self-produced music videos, appeared in magazines and toured the US all without label or industry support. Meticulously crafting a duality of devastating heaviness and swirling melodies, with atmosphere and flow unique among their peers THE YELLOW SIGN has put themselves in position to break onto the world stage while keeping true to what fans have loved about them from the beginning. 5 dudes who love pizza, nerd shit and headbanging. In the fall of 2010 we called it quits.

RIP...fuck why bests bands broken up while others gays continue to make shit!!
