Anyone else as upset as me about this?? Had been looking forward to seeing them live for ages, seems abit out of the blue even with the recent troubles theyd had...
From
"After 13 and a half years, five studio albums and hundreds of concerts in 17 different countries around the world, USURPER has come to an end. Everyone in USURPER would like to thank their die-hard fans and friends for over a decade of metal insanity! This decision was very hard for the members of the band, but as the saying goes, 'all things must come to an end'.
"Although the decision to end USURPER wasn't easy, it was the right thing to do. Unfortunately, between member changes, label issues and lack of communication between the remaining band members, now was the time to nail up the USURPER coffin so to speak.
The official MySpace page will still be maintained and we will try to keep everyone updated on what the remaining band members are up to. Rick [Scythe; guitar/vocals] has started a new band called NIGHTSHADE and Jon [Necromancer; bass/vocals] and Chris [Carcass Chris; 'ead gitar] will also pursue other musical outlets. Be sure to check this MySpace page in the near future, for news about such musical endeavors."
Pity, Twilight Dominion and Cryptobeast were great albums

What kind of name for a band is that anyway? It really doesn't inspire me to listen to them to even find out of they are any good or not. That can't be a good way to promote your band.

You most likely heard a track off of their new album. Listen to something from their Doom EP (actually, don't bother). It's complete deathcore shite. That's what got them famous on Myspace, and signed aswell. Since then they decided to try and be a proper death metal band. I don't like core bands trying to be metal.

I know this is an old thread but Usurper are aadly missed. I was lucky enough to tour with them and apart from being a great band they are some of the best people ive met, and some of the most METAL! Rick has a new band going, not quite Usurper but worth a listen... www.myspace.com/nightshadeofficial Jon has also joined Nachtmystium.
