VRIESS
is the contaminated Thrash / Death Metal child of the 2020 pandemic
formed by PROJECT FOR BASTARDS members Greg and Chris (also ex-THE
LUMBERJACK FEEDBACK) that decided to start working back on songs the
later started creating a decade before.
Mixing
groovy and heavy riffs, Thrash Metal’s appetite for speed and Death
Metal’s hungriness for rotten atmospheres in their material, the duet
soon recruits professional session musicians to complete the line-up
with drummer extraordinaire Kévin PARADIS (BENIGHTED, MITHRIDATIC…)
behind the kit and mesmerizing Linus KLAUSENITZER (ALKALOID,
ex-OBSCURA…) on bass
Five
songs are soon finalized with the addition of respected guitarist
Christofer MALMSTRÖM (DARKANE…) as a guest soloist on one, resulting in
the band’s debut EP that’s, lyrically, a reflection about the world we
live in during these current troubled times.
