Darkset Theory

About Me

Darkset Theory was formed April 7th, 2000. Ex-SnapHerHead members Rick and Johnny met with ex-GodSpawn vocalist Dave and created a hybrid blend of grindcore, techno, noisecore and industrial metal. Their now infamous Blue demo was a limited release, 5 song demo which demonstrated their ability to combine different genres and techniques. In 2001, the band went into White Rose studios and recorded Inside 38, which garnered the honor of being one of the first Death Techno releases. After Inside 38, the band began to explore a darker path, influenced by many european black metal bands as Dimmu Borgir, Emperor, Borknagar, as well as extreme industrial bands such as The Berzerker and Ultraviolence. Luna joined the band in early 2006, adding a whole new element to the Darkset Theory sound with her melodic and haunting voice. Constantly evolving, combining speeds up to 200 bpm with melodic chord progressions, Darkset Theory released their 3rd cd entitled "The Failings of the Human Design" in spring of 2007. Summer of 2007 saw Dave leaving the band to pursue other interests.
