Voivod
Artist Overview
Acclaimed Canadian metal outfit Voivod helped pioneer speed and thrash metal in the early 1980s. By the release of 1987's KILLING TECHNOLOGY, the always challenging band had successfully integrated into their sound and overall aesthetic a prog-tinged explicitly sci-fi element, which distinguished them as a forward-thinking metal band that still maintained ties to its blistering roots. The band developed a solid, loyal fanbase through the years, which was only strengthened by the addition of former Metallica bassist Jason Newstead in 2002. The band even released their self-titled 2003 album on Newstead's own Chophouse label.
