Musical Influences Fear Factory, Rammstien, Nine Inch Nails

Artist History Infestation is an electronic hard rock band based in Dallas, Texas. The band's unique sound is a compilation of styles ranging from hardcore metal to electronic trance. A smooth combination of electronic drums, keys, and samples along with heavy guitar and bass layered over the top, combined with a unique vocal approach help to create the sound of Infestation. Bands whose influences can be heard in the sounds of Infestation range from Dream Theater to Machine Head and from Depeche Mode to Nine Inch Nails. Infestation is on the cutting edge of today's music, constantly redefining themselves and their art. Infestation has recorded four self produced albums, Dysfunctional, The I Promise Project, Full Circle, and One More Thing. Dysfunctional was recorded in 1999 and helped to define the band’s sound as heavy and driving. The more experimental The I Promise Project (2000) incorporated an almost all electronic sound, while still retaining the guitar driven sound of Dysfunctional. An album created out of therapeutic necessity, Full Circle (2001) demonstrates a seamless fusion between the bone shattering effects of relentlessly mastered heavy metal riffs and an all encompassing sense of unreality provided by the technological electricity of hardcore industrial music. Lyrically poetic, a twisted, self depreciating motif runs through the course of this album. Songs of longing, guilt, lust, hate, and redemption weave the listener in and out of the mind of the sordid, desperate individual who is locked deep away within us all. One More Thing (2002) is a four song EP which the band recorded at Patrick McGuire Studios in Arlington. Even though the album is considerably shorter from the previous discs, the songs are actually part of a bigger album that the band started recording in November of 2002. The upcoming album, Evolution will feature all the tracks from One More Thing as well as new versions of Dead Girl, Her Eyes, Fallen and Fantasy Girl from the Full Circle album. Evolution currently features 13 tracks, and the band is considering a few more to add to the final release. Evolution will be released sometime in 2004, and promises to be the strongest Infestation release to date.
