Carnifex

Carnifex is a Death Metal band from San Diego, California, which formed in 2005.

History

Carnifex formed in 2005 in San Diego, California with a starting lineup of Scott Lewis, Cory Arford, and Shawn Cameron, as well as former members Steve McMahon (bass) and Travis (guitar). After releasing two demos they were signed to underground label This City Is Burning Records and released their debut album Dead in My Arms on July 12, 2007. The reasonable success of this album, and the prevalence of the Death Metal genre as a whole, attracted the attention of Victory Records.

Carnifex signed to Victory Records in 2008 and released The Diseased and The Poisoned in June 2008, which reached #19 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers Chart.[1]

Carnifex will be touring with Darkest Hour and Bleeding Through, among others, in the Thrash and Burn European Tour 2009 in April and May 2009 in Europe. They will also be the supporting band for Parkway Drive for their DVD Tour.
