Despised Icon is a deathcore band from Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The band was formed by members of Neuraxis, In Dying Days and Heaven’s Cry, in January 2002.
The band is noted for the use of two full-time vocalists, Alexandre Erian, (Also one of the members of the rap group Crimson Syndicate) who sings using a mid-range yelling/shouting technique, and Steve Marois for the extremely low growls, high pitched screams, and “pig squeals”. Despised Icon is known for its work in the underground music industry, having been met with both critical acclaim and appraisal for its efforts in deathcore music. They can also be cited as one of the first deathcore bands, starting out in 2002.

It's tagged as grindcore? i'm not like one of this "lulz, scenkiddiez tag bullshit as grindcore, rofls" trolls but... i do not really think it's GC. whatever it is (deathcore.) it is aaaawesome. bought their day of mourning today because the se was only 10€ :D and (just like caliban and mendeed, wich i also only bought because the cover was cool and the price also) it is real awesome. good stuff.

Day Of Mourning is such a good album. I loved The Ills Of Modern Man but I think DOM was just that one step better. Hope they do some shows in Australia soon.
