INVOKER
Like a poison, or an infectious disease, it enters you without you noticing, sneaking into your bloodstream and spreading upwards to the meninges of your brain. Before long, it finds a home—lodged in the crevices of your brain—and from there, it spreads, growing into a full fledged parasite, gnawing away at your sanity. Before long, you are hollow, a shell of your former self. This is the full, relentless effect of InVoker—an up and coming, unstoppably heavy North Carolinian quintet from some of the same evil minds behind deathcore juggernauts Impale the Betrayer. By combining hard-hitting, filth-laden riffs with slamming, bone-busting brutality and skin-shredding technicality—all topped off with a unique dual-vocal assault—InVoker are leading the charge into new and inventive territory somewhere in the no man’s land between devastating deathcore and technically-savvy, groovy Nu metalcore.
InVoker are just as dedicated to delivering their demoralizing, down-tuned brand of destruction to their fans doorsteps as they are making it. With their first twelve tours completed in 2014 and 2015 covering most North America, along with the release of their incredibly well received and addicting debut album “Death Is Inevitable”, this crushing quintet are relentless in their effort to make themselves known across the nation. “The Manhattan Project,” “Digression” and “10-95” all display different sides of the band’s multifaceted dynamic—a dynamic that was further shown in their newest release “D/EVOLVE”. Further proof the band’s hard work has warranted much-deserved attention. So whether its with an awe-inspiring, life-taking live performance or through their incessant need to write and release more music for their fans to thrive on, InVoker are slowly but surely infecting every set of ears across America—and there is no sign of them slowing or stopping.
