Rôle:
High-energy, hardcore/punk-infused death metal from Moncton.
Established in 2009 under the name Malixira, the group has since seen several lineup changes landing on what is now Sean Carroll (vocals, guitar), Marc-André "Goldfish" Richard (drums), and Alex Olmstead (bass).
Drawing heavily from contemporary hardcore/punk influencers Converge, Nails, and Pig Destroyer as well as taking notes from modern metal trailblazers like Between the Buried and Me, Revocation, and Gojira, the sound being presented by Ibex is a cacophony of blasting drums and adrenaline fueled hooks wrapped up in a noisy and pummeling package.
In February of 2020, Ibex self-released their debut full-length, The Hurt Sets In.
