Formally known as Mantra, CARV swept through the Massachusetts music scene last year in a blur. In March 2000, the band was booked to play the main stage at the Locobazooka! 2000 festival after the promoter heard their demo single "No Exit". In only their second show, they opened for national acts Disturbed, Dope, P.O.D., and Days of the New. The sponsor of the event, radio station WAAF labeled CARV "the local band to watch". The band signed a recording contract with XOFF Records and quickly completed a 6-song EP entitled "Anesthetic" at New England's legendary Longview Farms Recording Studio (Creed, Sevendust, Staind) with Boston Music Award-nominated producer Scott Riebling (Letters to Cleo, American Hi-Fi). The band also signed a management deal with industry legend Dan Beck (Epic Records, V2). To complete the circle, CARV hit the main stage again at Locobazooka! 2001, the only local act to have a 30 minute set, opening for The Henry Rollins Band, Bio Hazard, and Reveille
