Seattle, WA based grind act Theories has been sowing the seeds of bleak, dark, and generally pissed off grind/metal in the pacific northwest since their inception in 2010. The band, comprised of current and former members Samothrace, Skarp and Book Of Black Earth, released their debut EP that same year.

Their touring campaign followed shortly thereafter, and has taken them all over the US on nearly a dozen tours and to festivals including Maryland Death Fest, Chaos in Tejas, Southwest Terror Fest, and their most recent tour with new label mates, Cattle Decapitation.

Vocalist Rick Powell, guitarist Lee McGlothlen, bassists Kush Karimi and drummer Joe Axler are of a singular focus to tour as much as possible and to write hyper speed, violent music.
