In April
2003, after Panzer's break up,the drummer Edson Graseffi,
joined to the guitar players Sidney ( Nervochaos) and
Marcelo Ivanov, to start a new band.
With songs influenced by many branches of Thrash Metal
and Heavy Metal , the band recorded its first EP “In
Pieces” .This material was produced by Héros Trench and
Marcelo Pompeu ( Mr. Som studio),between September and
November 2003.
The EP was available for free download on the band's
website, and in only 2 months, 2000 downloads were
registered.It brought to the band ,in a short time, many
reviews in Brazil and Europe, as in Bledding Magazine (Germany),
“Infernal Riffs Thrash that stick in our head
immediately ”.They conceded some interviews to web sites
and magazines around the world, and they were cover
issue in the turkish magazine Rock Station.Besides and
the servian magazine Nocturne, they played constantly in
american radios like, Radio Satan 666 and Audio
Agression.
After one year , the EP reached 15.000 downloads, a
great score for an underground band,and it brought a big
exposure in the media.In addiction, Reviolence took part
in one project .This CD was a compilation named Joinig
Forces,from the german record company Hard Earn, that
was released in all Europe on the second semester of
2004,and the band got lots of good reviews around the
old continent.
Some months later, the band releases the video for the
song Zero of Me, produced by Cláudio Tibérius ,who had
already worked with Torture Squad and Panzer.This video
was made with captions of a gig in Blackmore Rock Bar
(São Paulo/ Brasil), in August 2004, and parts of band's
studio reharsals.
After some shows to promote the EP, Reviolence got in
the recording studio to start making their first cd,
that would be produced by Héros Trench and Marcelo
Pompeu.But in the middle of the recordings with a
previous instable line up, the band stops its activities
for a year and a half.
During this time, the drummer Edson Graseffi, joins his
old Panzer's bandmate , Mauricio Cliff. Together, they
start looking for musicians for a new line up.
The new reviolence is Carlos Furtado(vocals), Chico
Crestana (guitars),Guilherme Spilack (Guitars), Mauricio
Cliff (bass), and the drummer Edson, the only remnant
from the original line up.
With a renewed sound, the band has just released its
second EP, called VIOLENT PHENIX, and they are already
working on a debut cd , that will be available on 2008.
