REFLUX

Reflux biography
REFLUX is a progressive metal band from Washington D.C., USA consisting of Ash Avildsen (vocals), Tosin Abasi (guitar), Evan Brewer (bass), and Vinny Vinh (drums). They were formed in March of 2002 by Ash and Tosin, but didn't become the progressively brutal and melodic band the pair had envisioned until Vinny and Evan joined the band. Vinny and Evan solidified the lineup with their total commitment to the band and brought the necessary skills to keep up with Ash and Tosin's challenging technical material which has the musical complexity and savagery of MESHUGGAH and the melodic intensity of bands like KILLSWITCH ENGAGE and SHADOWS FALL.

REFLUX released their debut album "The Illusion of Democracy" on Prosthetic Records in 2004. The lyrics of Ash Avildsen are conspiracy themed and politically aimed.

WHY THIS BAND IS IN THE ARCHIVES:

REFLUX is known for their diversity and technical expertise. They keep a solid punishing base while combining odd time signatures and experimental diversions. They unite the visceral passion of hardcore and the vicious attack of death metal with a certain avant-garde virtuosity. They were approved by the Prog Metal Team and are highly recommended.
