Trevo… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least two bands with this name:
1) Unearth is:
Trevor Phipps - vocals
Buz McGrath - guitar
John Maggard - bass
Ken Susi - guitar
Nick Pierce - drums
Hailing from Massachusetts, Unearth bring a refreshing sense of talent with charismatic riffs, thought provoking lyrics and pummeling breakdowns. Unearth masterfully combine an intoxicating mix of American and European metal with hardcore ethic and punch. This unique approach makes Unearth one of the most abrasive, commanding and emotionally charged groups in heavy music today.
Formed in 1998, Unearth has accomplished more on their own than most bands can do with full support of a label and press. Constant tours all over the globe have earned them respect and recognition from their peers and helped cultivate one of the strongest fan bases around. In the last two years alone, Unearth has embarked on a sold-out headlining tour with Terror, Black Dahlia Murder and Remembering Never in tow, a sold-out run alongside Atreyu, and high profile treks with Slipknot, Killswitch Engage, Sounds Of The Underground 2005, The Headbanger's Ball tour and Ozzfest 2004. This summer, Unearth will head back overseas as a featured act on Sounds Of The Underground Europe and will once again tear up the US on the now infamous Ozzfest before unleashing their brutal new album in August.
The highly anticipated release "III: In The Eyes Of Fire" was produced by the legendary Terry Date (Soundgarden, Pantera, Deftones) and should satisfy even their most hardcore of fans. While most bands these days seem to have replaced breakdowns with "pretty" choruses, Unearth have gone in the opposite direction delivering their most brutal album to date. This crushing follow up to 2004's "The Oncoming Storm", is sure to cause nothing less than total destruction to every mosh pit in its wake.
On October 14, 2008, Unearth released their fourth album, entitled The March. The album features a re-recorded version of the song "The Chosen," which they contributed to the album Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters Colon the Soundtrack. The band recently completed a tour with Gwen Stacy, Whitechapel, The Acacia Strain and Protest the Hero. They are currently on the Never Say Die Club Tour with Parkway Drive, Despised Icon, Architects, Protest The Hero, Whitechapel and Carnifex. They will be on the Metal Hammer Defenders of the Faith tour with other acts such as Lamb of God, Dimmu Borgir and Five Finger Death Punch. As of Early 2009, it has been confirmed by billboard.com that The March has sold more than 100,000 copies world wide.
Justin Foley (Killswitch Engage, Blood Has Been Shed) handled the drumming on the band's 2011 album Darkness in the Light. Nick Pierce began touring with the group in 2011 before being announced as their official drummer in early 2012.
2) Unearth was a death metal band from Albuquerque, New Mexico. They released 2 demos, Malformed Cranium in 1994 and Spill the Plagues in 1995.
Vanishment
Unearth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take a plate full of everything here.
That's more than what you need.
All my life.
I've given back.
Build an army to set us back on track.
You'll see when nothing is here.
A sickening growl from our forgotten planet.
It's bare and scarred from all we've taken from it.
Then who will you blame?
Now everything must change!
All must change!
We're all damned.
Raped unfed world.
Gone.
Change.
Save enough for them.
There will be nothing left, but waste.
Save enough for them.
There will be nothing left
"Vanishment" by Unearth delves into issues of environmental destruction and the consequences of our actions, framed as a warning about the future. The opening lines invite the listener to come along and witness the devastation wrought by human greed and consumption, with the ominous implication that it's too much to bear. The lines "Take a plate full of everything here. That's more than what you need" suggest that our desire for material goods is insatiable and ultimately destructive, with more and more demanded without regard for the consequences.
The verse "All my life. I've given back. Build an army to set us back on track. You'll see when nothing is here. Then who will you blame?" implies guilt and regret on the part of the singer, who has tried to offset their own consumption by giving back to the world, but recognizes that it may not be enough. The chorus "A sickening growl from our forgotten planet. It's bare and scarred from all we've taken from it. Then who will you blame? Now everything must change! All must change!" speaks to the degradation we've wreaked upon the earth and our denial of responsibility for it.
The phrase "Raped unfed world" is especially visceral and effective in conveying both the brutality of our actions and their ultimate futility; by destroying the environment, we are essentially destroying ourselves. The final lines of the song "Save enough for them. There will be nothing left, but waste. Save enough for them. There will be nothing left" suggest that we must act now to preserve resources and opportunities for future generations, lest they be left with nothing.
