Infection Code, (Asti/Alessandria)

BIOGRAPHY
It's the fall of 1999 when five piedmont musicians decided to give life to a different project. Different from what they were playing or have played prior with other bands. Different from the majority of the music setting at the time. Different as a concept. Starting as a rough experimental project Infection Code became an out and out band. From the very beginning their identity is very clear for their music knows no boundaries, exploring genders ranging from the brutality of death metal to grind along the claustrophobia of noise and industrial coldness with a underground post-core ready to explode. In 2000 the five piece release the acclaimed EP 'H.I.V. 999' with four songs revealing the band's cutting edge personality. Both Italian and foreign critics describe Infection's sound as groundbreaking, although complex and strenuous. After several live shows Infection Code focused on their debut album "Life Continuity Point" released in 2001. On the album they carried on their courageous project becoming one of the fore-fronting bands in the Italian scene. Shortly after finishing the full-length, two members departed ways leaving Infection Code to persist forward. Finding the additional element as a replacement former leader of post thrashers Arcadia, Demetrio Scopelliti enters the group adding to the intensity of an already established act prompting the band to record Aspasic. The song represents a further evolution of the piedmont group, and for this reason they decided to add it to the new album "Sterile". In 2003 Infection Code are chosen to play a french tribute to Godflesh's song Nails shortly thereafter the recording of the song Demetrios departed ways in his replacement the band recruited guitarist Davide who brought fresh ideas to the mix. Sterile received good reviews in numerous European magazines and online webzines boosting the band to newer levels of professionalism.
