One of the most original and innovative bands to
emerge from the punk underground, Converge were formed in the winter of
1990-1991, and after several singles, compilation appearances and the
requisite growing pains, they released their first full-length effort,
Halo in a Haystack, in 1994. The Boston-based metalcore and
math rock pioneers were initially comprised of vocalist/visual artist
Jacob Bannon, guitarist Kurt Ballou, bassist Jeff Feinburg, and drummer
Damon Bellorado, with second guitarist Aaron Dalbec joining in 1994 (he
later left in 2001 without being replaced). Over the years, the band
also found time to lend out members to various side projects, including
Kingdom of the Sun, Old Man Gloom, and Kid Kilowatt (the short-lived
band that also included members of Cave In). Hydra Head issued Caring and Killing in 1996, which gathered tracks
released during the band's infancy, followed a year later by Petitioning
the Empty Sky, which was released by the independent label Equal
Vision. Cave In's Stephen Brodsky replaced bassist Feinburg in 1997 as
well, and by the release of 1998's When Forever Comes Crashing, Converge
had proved themselves a force to be reckoned with in the hardcore-metal
scene. Brodsky left the band that same year and was replaced by bassist
Nate Newton; Bellorado likewise exited in 1999 and, soon enough, the
band had welcomed drummer Ben Koller into the fray. A split with Japan's
Hellchild appeared in 2001 through Death Wish, Inc. (which Bannon
co-owned) before Converge's ever-growing reputation among fans and
critics was cemented even further with the release of the band's fourth
official full-length, the highly acclaimed metal masterpiece Jane Doe.
