Viscera/// is a psychedelic post-metal trio from Cremona, Italy. Since starting in 2000 the band has been experiencing with the combination of grindcore, black/death metal, ambient, drone and psychedelic music. Heavily influenced by late Carcass & Nasum and artcore/post-metal bands like Isis, Pelican or Neurosis, Viscera/// made their own solid and spine crushing sound which united their blasting grindcore roots with drone experiments and slow, low-tuned heaviness of extreme post-metal and sludge.
