  • Bio

    Discard was formed in early 2004 by Ohto Jaatinen (guitar), Toni Ronkainen (drums), Eero Kankkunen (guitar) and Vellu Kuronen (bass) out of the ashes of the group's previous project, Antar. Shortly after that Heikki Miettinen (vocals) joined the band and Vellu was ousted from the band. Discard's first demo, "Demo 2004", was recorded over the summer 2004 and was released shortly before Christmas. The beginning of 2005 marked a quieter period for Discard, as Eero moved to another part of Finland and eventually decided to leave the band. The void was soon filled by Janne Roiha (guitar), the producer of "Demo 2004" and not long after that a new bass player, Mikko Kytösaho, was found. Thus the current line-up was complete. The band started to work on their second demo and by the end of 2005 four new songs were written. The new demo, Bury the Sun, was recorded during December 2005 and January 2006. The new demo attracted a lot of positive attention. The demo was selected as "the demo of the month" by Soundi, a well respected Finnish music magazine. According to the magazine, the band has an angry and uncompromising attitude; yet they manage to control their rage much more effectively than many other representatives of their genre (Soundi 5/2006). The demo also received fantastic reviews on various webzines such as Encyclopedia Metallum and Noise. Thanks to the great potential of Bury the Sun, Discard were offered a chance to play at Ilosaarirock, the largest music festival in Eastern Finland. In the beginnig of 2007 Discard sold it's soul to Shadow World Records and released their debut Album Carrion. the following year vocalist Heikki Miettinen left the band due to lack in motivation. The European tour with Gama Bomb and Bonded with blood was cancelled for Discards part. Soon after this Tommi Virranta, Survivors Zero, ex-Deathchain took the vocalists post. However things slowed down soon after and the general atmosphere drove the group to put things on hold. Ultimately Discard disbanded in 2010.
