Unearth

H

ailing from Massachusetts, Unearth brought a new sense of talent with charismatic riffs, thought provoking lyrics and pummeling breakdowns. Unearth combined an intoxicating mix of American and European heavy metal with hardcore ethic and punch. The band started off with The Stings of Conscience (2001) and Endless (2002) EP under the membership of Buz McGrath (guitars), Ken Susi(guitars), Trevor Phipps (vocals), Chris "Rover" Rybicki (R.I.P. 2010; bass) and Mike Rudberg (drums).

For The Oncoming Storm (2004) and III: In the Eyes of Fire (2006) saw John "Slo" Maggard take on bass, piano and guitars, along with Mike Justian assuming drums.

For The March (2008) and Darkness in the Light (2011), Derek Kerswill took over drums, while Nick Pierce took it for Watchers of Rule (2014); Chris O'Toole took bass for Extinction(s) (2018).
