Infestation is an electronic hard rock band based in Dallas, Texas. The band's unique sound is a compilation of styles ranging from hardcore metal to electronic trance. Bands whose influences can be heard in the sounds of Infestation range from Dream Theater to Machine Head and from Depeche Mode to Nine Inch Nails. Infestation is on the cutting edge of today's music, constantly redefining themselves and the music. Infestation has been playing throughout Texas and the surrounding areas since 1995 and their stage show is one of the most entertaining and unpredictable shows around. The live act pushes it up to yet another level with electronic drums, an amazing amount of energy, unpredictable lights and other killer visual effects.Band/artist history
Infestation has recorded four self produced albums, Dysfunctional, The I Promise Project, Full Circle, and One More Thing. Dysfunctional was recorded in 1999 and helped to define the band’s sound as heavy and driving. The more experimental The I Promise Project (2000) incorporated an almost all electronic sound, while still retaining the guitar driven sound of Dysfunctional.
An album created out of therapeutic necessity, Full Circle (2001) demonstrates a seamless fusion between the bone shattering effects of relentlessly mastered heavy metal riffs and an all encompassing sense of unreality provided by the technological electricity of hardcore industrial music. Lyrically poetic, a twisted, self depreciating motif runs through the course of this album. Songs of longing, guilt, lust, hate, and redemption weave the listener in and out of the mind of the sordid, desperate individual who is locked deep away within us all.
One More Thing (2002) is a four song EP which the band recorded at Patrick McGuire Studios in Arlington. Even though the album is considerably shorter from the previous discs, the songs are actually part of a bigger album that the band started recording in November of 2002. The upcoming album, Evolution will feature all the tracks from One More Thing as well as new versions of Dead Girl, Her Eyes, Fallen and Fantasy Girl from the Full Circle album. Evolution currently features 13 tracks, and the band is considering a few more to add to the final release. Evolution will be released sometime in 2004, and promises to be the strongest Infestation release to date.Have you performed in front of an audience?We've played live in just about any club in Dallas and Fort Worth.

Your musical influences
We're influenced by a lot of different things... metal, industrial, trance, new wave... whatever. Some of our favorite groups include Fear Factory, Nine Inch Nails, Rammstein, Delerium, KMFDM and Orbital.What equipment do you use?
My primary piece of gear is my Yamaha Rm1x... It's a great sequencer, as the menus are user friendly, and it's easy to get the thing to do what I want. I also use the following equipment: Yamaha CS2x synth, Yamaha S200 sampler, Korg D1200 Hard Drive Recorder, Sonic Foundry Acid 3.0 & Sound Forge 6.0, Steinberg Nuendo, Yamaha DG series guitar amps, Peavey power amps and guitar cabinets, DBX compressors, Sony Mini-Disc player, (for live use) Ibanez, Jackson, and Schecter guitars and basses, Alesis Drum Modules... well, that's some of it. There's a lot more missing from this list!
