NEOLITHIC draws heavy influence from d-beat hardcore and death metal, aiming to create their own sound of aggressive down-tuned pitch-black death/crust. The band’s lyrics touch on subjects of corruption, war, and death. Formed by Baltimore-area scene vets in early 2017, the band is currently comprised of vocalist Evan Harting (Miasmatic Necrosis) drummer Jon John Michaud (ex-Swarm of the Lotus), guitarist Mitchell Roemer (ex-Pulling Teeth, ex-Ruiner), guitarist James Willett (Coke Bust) and bassist Patrick Martin (End It). Influences from the early Earache catalog artists like Bolt Thrower, Napalm Death, and Brutal Truth surge with a modern, crusty groove.
