Past_members =Inveracity is a Greek
brutal death metal band originally fromAthens , formed by drummer Vagelis Varlas and guitarist Antonis, and has released two full-length albums, "Circle of Perversion " and "Extermination of Millions ".History
Inveracity was formed in 1998 by Vagelis and Antonis with the intention of playing brutal death metal. After a year had passed they discovered the vocalist Dionisis. A year later, former
Bloodgore bass guitarist Lefteris joined to complete the line-up.The same year, 2000, the band recorded "Defeated Humans Raped" which was released in January 2001 on CD format. This demo CD contained 5 tracks. Dionisis left the band due to personal differences the following November, being temporarily replaced by Jim from
Leprosy .Inveracity performed several times in small gigs and metal-fests. At one of these gigs, Inveracity met Anastasis Valtsanis of Nuclear Winter records who offered them their first record contract. That was for a 10" vinyl split with
Insision .During the recordings of the split, Jim left the band, being replaced by Marios and the rest of the band was very happy with the voice they had found, feeling it was right for Inveracity’s sound.
The split with
Insision was released in 2002. The Inveracity side was entitled "Deceased, Abandoned, Disgraced".In summer of 2002, Revenge Productions (a German production company) bought the rights for the split and released it on CD format. A few months later Inveracity signed with Tennessee-based Unmatched Brutality Records.
The band completed its first album, "Circle of Perversion", in summer 2003. The album tracks were more fast-paced than the band's previous efforts and received many positive reviews. The CD hit the underground in December 2003. Inveracity continued playing live shows, watching the fanbase grow with each show.
In the summer of 2004 Marios left Inveracity. He was soon replaced by ex-Angrist vocalist, George.
In early 2006, Inveracity signed with
Unique Leader Records and began recording their second album, "Extermination of Millions ", which was released in early 2007, with very positive reactions.Discography
