Description:
Inner Surge is an intense, politically and emotionally charged metal/punk band from Canada. The band has an explosive live show and blends punk, rock, metal, electronic and eastern influences. With an eclectic, intense approach, the band explores politics and deep seeded emotions in it's music. The result is a sound that is compassionate, yet unapologetically raw. Inner Surge was formed in 2001 by Steve Moore, who wrote and recorded the debut album "Solus Verum", a 16-track epic with an intensely personal lyrical approach. The next album "Matrika" was recorded at Organic Sounds studios in Calgary, and was released to excellent reviews. Space Junkies Mag gave it 10+ out of 10, while Bands United described it as "Disturbingly fresh". "Matrika" found the band reworking their sound, making it tighter and more hardhitting.
Inner Surge has played many shows including the "Rock against Racism 2002" concert in Calgary, as well as organized it's own benefit concerts for charities such as Operation Eyesight Universal and the Evan Shaw Foundation. The band has also appeared on many compilation CD's including Skratch Magazine, CrankSpiv Records Volume 8 and 9, SWRecords Alt/Metal comp, Atom Sounds Records, Synaptic Graffiti's latest release and Funender Music. Inner Surge is promoted by Platform 12, AFB Promotions, Atom-Sounds Records and M-Promotions. Inner Surge's intense and honest sound has given the band a fast-growing following, and with plans for a new album on the horizon, the word is sure to spread.

CANADIAN PUNK BAND SPEAKS OUT Canadian rock/punk/metal band Inner Surge (www.innersurge.com) has recently released their new album "Matrika", an intense CD offering that contains more than it's share of scorching remarks about the current state of international affairs. Lines such as "Attacking markets with bombs, You'd better sing the redemption song"(Silencer) and " Peace he preaches now as if he knows what it means, and uses it's power to forge patriotic dreams"(The Deepest Wound) Not to say that it's all the band talks about, but they definitely don't shy away from the tough topics. The album has been compared to the likes of Rage Against the Machine, Refused and Tool, and has received strong reviews so far. Vocalist Steve Moore told Metal-Only.com "The reason that Iraq is an issue is because it did not need to become an issue. The proof was not there, so it was forged. This is the point that Michael Moore's critics are sorely missing. This is a crime. You cannot say it any clearer than that. Certainly there is much more going on, but it seems many people are confused, and it is beneficial to focus on some key points, and the general conduct of the Bush administration. You don't bowl over the United Nations because you want something done right away. To be a leader, you must have patience, and it saddens me that the deaths in Iraq are rarely presented to us in North America, especially the civilian deaths. There's no excuse for it."
