The band had its early beginnings in Sydney, Australia 2001, when two school friends Denis Vlachiotis (Lead/Rhythm Guitar) and Michael Conti (Bass/Vocals) collaborated to write and assemble material for what would soon become Dred.
With Michael Conti initially performing both bass and vocal duties, the band’s music began to take shape. Combining attributes of thrash and death metal, they were to spend the next two years developing the band’s direction, rehearsing, writing and refining their original material.
In late 2004, they met musician Mikhail Okrugin (Rhythm/Lead Guitar) and knew they had found someone who shared their passion. He joined the band and the nucleus of DRED was firmly established.
With several songs already written, the band set to work recording an instrumental 4-track demo, which they circulated around Sydney in the hope of finding a drummer and a vocalist to complete the line-up.
The search for a drummer proved to be a challenge. However after a thorough search David Horgan was spotted competing in the final of a prestigious national drumming competition. The guys immediately asked Dave to audition for the band, and within a short time he would take his place behind the kit for Dred.
Luckily the search for a vocalist was an easy one as close friend Evgeny Linnik, an experienced local vocalist, agreed to join the band late 2005. Evgeny’s powerful stage presence and unique vocal style were the final elements required in order for Dred to produce their own distinctive sound.
