Invidiosucks was formed sometime in 2006, and has gone through 23 members (no joke). We strive to make fucking good music, and are inspired by the skewed world around us: government corruption, transparent religions, conditioning via mass media and pop culture, and the 90% of music that has been overrun by overproduced, target-marketed, auto-tuned bullshit (not to mention what MTV is calling "metal" nowadays..) We are very proud of our metal scene, and have been fortunate to play with many local and national bands that kick ungratuitous amounts of ass. These bands include Vital Remains, Lividity, Into Eternity, We Are Legion, Deterioration, Gutstump, Zombie Hate Brigade, Vulnerata, Killmoshfuckdestroy, Daigoro, Suspended, Becoming the Archetype, Ambassador Gun, Viral Mutation, and many more. We recently released our first EP, entitled "The Heterotrophic Harvest", for our 2009 tour with Deterioration. We are determined to continue making brutal music, contributing to our music scene, and convincing all of you fucks that aliens exist, our race is headed towards destruction, and there is a global elite that controls YOU... and the world!
"Invidiosus provides their more-or-less melodic type of grindcore mixed with death metal. There are portions of their songs that remind me of monoliths of the genre, such as DECAPITATED. This band was very well put together, with good drumming, solid riffing, and a varied vocal approach, providing the never ending growling that such music is known for." -D.I.M. (MN)
"Invidiosus is quite literally insane, and not the 'savant' insane, either. This is like not letting someone near some three-in-one oil and gauze pads, because they'll find a way to make a nuclear device with it. Invidiosus is like CEPHALIC CARNAGE, CARCASS, and ORIGIN all rolled into one... and the lead guitarist (Kevin Alter) must listen to IRON MAIDEN, because that's definitely what the solos sound like." -The Diatribe Monthly (WI)
"Invidiosus, from St. Paul, Minnesota, was next up for more Death Metal madness. Folks, I'm not sure how the Northern states are producing such high-level metal musicians, but believe me, they've got some serious talent flowing around up there... it must be in the water. This band is another one that "gets it" when it comes to Death Metal. The lead vocalist, Matthias Joyce, is a Grinder at going from very high-pitched vocals to the lowest lows, making the hair on your neck stand up and form the Metalhorns! We were all headbanging and enjoying the power from Invidiosus. These guys totally kicked our zombied Metalhead asses at one in the morning!" -Brazo's Metal Music Review (TX)
A typical crappy band practice..

Haha you guys were brutal thursday night. You should pick up a copy of the album, but we're outta shirts :( I Needs me a copy of your cd also. FO REALZ!
Indeed I did go to Roseville! And now I muck about with friends on the local metal scene. Funny how things work... When are you guys playing a show next? [BTW- you should come to Tuckerfest Oct. 3rd at the Triple Rock.]
I really need a band on the 9th of OCT but the one downfall is that the venue isn't paying out because they are a dry venue but they did say that the kids buy merch up it's been the hardest show to keep bands on due to that if you want on I'll hook you up it's us Bloodgeon, Northian, and I'm working on Warvolution but haven't gotten a reply yet.
