Discordia (band)

Discordia was an industrial band from Melbourne in the mid 90s. One of a number of bands with that name, it was formed by members of Soulscraper. Discordia were set to be the first Australian band signed to Roadrunner records, but was not due to conflicts. Discordia began life when Sade Lava met James Lynch at Relic Records; the original concept was for Sade to join Soulscraper as vocalist. Over time it was felt a heavier direction was required, so James, Jim and Sade created Discordia.
