Canadian masters of metallic hard-core, Ion Dissonance combine precise stop-on-a-dime drumming and a phrenetic, hefty guitar attack with songs that assault with the force of a pestiferous thermonuclear device to create something young and operose on the alloy scene. Ion Dissonance were formed in Montreal, Quebec in mid-2002 by guitarists Sebastien Chaput and Antoine Lussier and drummer J.F. Richard, alloy fans interested in pickings the music to modern sonic extremes. Teaming with vocalizer Gabriel McCaughry and bassist Sebastien Painchaud, Ion Dissonance recorded their first demonstration in the fall of 2002, and it was released to fans under the title .357 by the end of the year. The demonstration EP earned the set positive press care and Ion Dissonance began sharing stages with the likes of the Dillinger Escape Plan, Every Time I Die and the Black Dahlia Murder. In the spring of 2003, Ion Dissonance began work on their get-go uncut album, only non before bassist Painchaud leftfield the group, to be replaced by Miguel Valade. Pennsylvania-based metal label Willowtip Records released Ion Dissonance's debut album, External respiration Is Irrelevant, in the fall of 2003, with an American turn following early in 2004. The radical continued to spell passim Canada and the United States through the catch one's breath of 2004, though bassist Valade would voice company with Ion Dissonance late in the year. In early 2005, Xavier St. Laurent took over on bass, and the band continued their punishing route agenda, pickings a break in May to begin exercise on their mo album, Solace, which would be released by Abacus Recordings in September 2005. More roadwork followed, including appearances at many of North America's leading extreme metal festivals, and a tear CD with Despised Icon featuring uncommon demonstration material was released in June of 2006. That same calendar month, vocalist McCaughry proclaimed he was going away Ion Dissonance due to creative differences, and in the fall, the band disclosed that Kevin McCaughey, erstwhile of the group Shaolin, had signed on as their fresh isaac Merrit Singer, in fourth dimension to begin transcription on the group's adjacent album, Negative the Herd, which was released by Abacus in June 2007.
