SICARUS is a San Diego based metal band that displays convincing elements of several sub genres of metal, taking influences from the likes of Slipknot, Killswitch Engage, Lamb of God and Iron Maiden. SICARUS adds its own unique sound and vocal style which regularly encompasses 3 and 4 piece vocal harmonies to bring a truly melodic and powerful aspect to their distinctive and diverse style of metal. Since its inception SICARUS has quickly established themselves in the local scene as a force to be reckoned with, earning the respect of fans and musicians alike.
Currently the band is writing new material to record in May 2008 while simultaneously playing shows and establishing themselves to gain attention that will lead to performances with national acts.
The core of the band was formed in summer 2007 by its two founding members Jon and Kenny, who began tentative work on several songs that would evolve into the current SICARUS set list. Both guitarists complement one another in their individual styles and ideas as they collaborate to create an awesome balance of power, aggression, melody and brutality. After weeks of painful auditions they finally found the musicians that would complete the band; Eric, KC and Dustin quickly joined SICARUS to perfect every dimension of the bands sound and design.
With their first demo “Bleed Seraphim” complete and released, the band has received enormous praise and is quickly building a solid fan base, regularly selling 80-100 pre-sale tickets at local shows, and has recently had air time on the orange county radio station, KUCI. SICARUS has established a 1 year business plan which encompasses frequent performances both local and afar, recording their second demo in May ’08, receiving local and national air play, launching an official website and releasing a line of merchandise, all while continuing to develop SICARUS professionally and musically.
SICARUS is now prepared to launch full time into turning their vision into reality.
We appreciate the support and the interest, as long as you guys want to hear metal, we'll write it and play it. Stay heavy, listen to metal.
