Evra

Rock band from Copenhagen, Denmark

Only 2 years into their existence, the ambitious Copenhagen quintet EVRA are preparing to release their debut full length “LIGHTBEARER”. The record is the vessel for the band’s aspirations towards making a lasting name for themselves abroad as much as in Denmark, enlisting the services of professionals that have formerly worked with internationally renowned bands like Funeral For A Friend, Code Orange, Defeater, Sleep and Converge (to name a few). The release will also feature artwork by Plastic Kid aka. Jakob Printzlau, whose videos and artwork have previously helped define the visual identities of bands like Bring Me The Horizon, Volbeat and I Killed The Prom Queen.

Stylistically, EVRA aim to fuse the qualities of two genres that have enjoyed widespread respect and popularity in the heavy music scenes of recent years: Stoner and hardcore. Citing influences from Black Sabbath, Pallbearer and Graveyard over to Gallows, Every Time I Die and Brutality Will Prevail, the band’s sound marries heavy, yet groovy riffage to the punishing tempos and urgent energy of chaotic hardcore shows.
