CORROSIF biography

Corrosif (formerly known as Pride) was founded in 1995 by four youngsters from around 
Sierre in Switzerland. The actual name change occurred after a line-up change and the keen 
observation that a Metal band needs a more appropriate moniker. In May 1996 the band 
recorded its first demo, shortly after which a more or less stable line-up was achieved in order 
to set off and get to know each other's ways … all this, of course, to obtain a homogenous 
sound and composing process. Less than a year later, they were ready to perform live and the 
public's response was extraordinary right from the start. Like any developing matter, 
Corrosif's line-up remained in constant evolution, which resulted in the recording of their 
second demo in July 1998. But the virus was in their blood and soon they decided to record a 
new four-track album in a weightier studio. The chosen place: BBM studios in Lausanne. 
Totor, bassist of Hare, produced them there and that's how "Skeleton Kit" was born. Nature 
followed its course and a load of concerts was followed by the canning of Corrosif's first 
"real" album in September 2002, again featuring Totor behind the BBM Studios console. The 
album was only spread in Switzerland. Today, the sextet is ready as ever to spread the disease 
worldwide aided by their brand new album "Join Us". The ten songs on this neat looking 
triptych digipack overwhelm you with their powerful yet refined sound. Violent, at times even 
distressing moods alternate with more atmospheric parts and the Metal shapeshifts to merge 
into a landscape of heaviness, intensity and melody. Corrosif is currently composing a new 
album.
