Since the start in 1996, The Provenances general aim, both musically as well as lyrically, has been to portray the hopelessness, despair and frustration of living in a bleak and gloomy world. This is also where one is able to find the beauty and wonders of reality.
Having released How would you like to be spat at in January 2005, they managed to prove, not only to themselves but also to the attentive masses, they stand securely with both feet on the ground in an experimental, tentative world of pitch-black music. The drastic development this band has undergone over the years clearly indicates their uniqueness when it comes to experimentation and alteration, musically as well as personally. In hope to inspire and enthuse, The Provenance incessantly continues to pound the shape of uniform, homogeneous and narrow-minded conceptions of the music scene at large. The Swedes have always embraced the notion of artistic exploration and development and consistently return with a fresh musical approach incomparable to each and every one of their previous releases, including the awe-inspiring work of 2001’s 25th hour; bleeding, 2003’s Still at arms length and 2005’s How would you like to be spat at.
Leaving Scarlet Records behind in 2005, the band strives onward with their fourth full-length release Red flags, due 2006 on Peaceville Records so the bands future looks brighter than ever before.

Funny that The Gathering isn't listed higher in the Similar Artists. They sound quite similar but The Provenance is much more interesting to listen to.

The Provenance split up. You can find the guys in Laethora, a death metal band (that kicks asses, believe me).

Is the band still active? According to the metal-archives.com, it's Split-up, their webpage is down, and their myspace page is entitled "The Provenance (R.I.P)". Doh. :(

Extremely underrated. I prefer their earlier albums. In my opinion 25th Hours Bleeding is fantastic. But their last album is good..
