Formed in 1995 at the height of Alternative music's reign on the 90's. Korotory was the alternative to the alternative. From their inception Korotory was 100% metal and completely against the grain. The core of the band has been vocalist Ray Truhn, guitarist Gary Hoyt, and drummer Darren Markoff. From 1996-2001 Korotory recorded two demos 1996's self titled demo and 2001's Process of Elimination. The band would also play over 100 shows and share the stage with Metal giants such as Death, Nevermore, Iced Earth, and Hammerfall. In late 2001 after six years of hard work and being completely burned out Korotory would go on hiatus.The members would go on to play in other bands such as Divine Burning Angels, Neverafter, Dust, Slow Painful Dose, and Burnt. In 2006 the core members decided to reform and with the addition of bassist Ryan Belmont the band picked up where they left off and began working on new material as well as re-writing some older songs and getting all the cobwebs off the classics. The boys quickly re bonded both musically and as brothers making this the most lethal, and stable line up ever. Korotory has started a campaign to wreak havoc on the masses creating chaos where ever they go. Intent on destroying any and all trends and putting to rest any doubts that metal was Dead or ever will be. In 2008 the band would play 75 shows including shows with Bloodclot!(featuring Biohazard/Cro-Mags/Merauder/Pro Pain Members)M.O.D. and Suicide City(Biohazard/ex Kittie members) as well as record there debut album Age of Rebellion with producer Joe Cincotta (Suffocation, Internal Bleeding, ect) @ FullForce Studios. 2009 brings the band a new member guitarist Andy Fremder and the release of Age of Rebellion on Last Resort Records as well more shows and the writing and recording of the follow up CD
