The Beginning
Goreslave was founded by Messias Júnior (Drums and Vocals) in August/1999. The first material, a 3-songs demo entitled Into The Abyss was released in July/2000. The good acceptation in the Underground scenery produces important contacts around the world. This material is distributed for a lot of countries, resulting in the participation of metal compilations (Rock Soldiers vol. 5) and some gigs with great names of brazilian metal scene.
"A Tide Of Suffering Will Come..."
In 2003, the last copies of Into The Abyss were distributed. Meanwhile, the band writes the first full-length album. But in december of the same year, a tumour is diagnosticated in José Lima (Bass). His death, in June/2004, leads the group to stop the activities, including the recording sessions, and cancel the release of the first album. An eternal brother of great fights lost the battle against cancer... and the battle of Goreslave comes to an end...
Rebuilding The Pillars
Some months later, a new bassist enter in the group. His name, Edílson Lyma. His force and dedication put the band again on the road. In March/2005, Messias Júnior bring to life another project: Symbolic Records. With this totally independent label, Goreslave re-release the Into The Abyss demo, including 4 new songs, recorded live in 2000 with José Lima (his last register in the band). In August/2005, is time to Letácio Tavares (Guitar) go away from the band, replaced by Cyro Correia, that leaves the group 1 year later. Messias Júnior reactivate the group in 2008, and a new guitar player, Adeilson Junior, join to build an another step to Goreslave's journey. Now they follow in intense battle to find a new guitar player, record and release the first album.
Some Words About The Group
Speaking about themes of human and spiritual natures, Goreslave uses the life and its traps as inspiration. The name "Goreslave" is a reference to the form how the mankind leads itself through the times, transforming actions and thoughts in a state of complete slavery, imprisoned by dogmas, outdated inheritances and absorbing the imperfections and alienations of a sick humanity in its essence. Goreslave performs a Brutal Death Metal, fast, morbid and extreme, but with melodic and heavy roots. This product is result from a lot of musical influences. With a new line-up coming soon, Goreslave are ready to continue in the path of Underground scenery, spreading its works and purposes.
