Convergeis a four-piece band based out of Boston, Massachusetts. Playing a blend of extreme metal, hardcore punk, and progressive sludge since 1990, this pioneer metal/punk outfit helped define a lot of the rudiments of the fast-burgeoning metalcoreand mathcoregenres. Converge formed in the winter of 1990. They first started by playing covers of hardcore, punk and heavy metal songs, being self-confessed "hardcore kids with leftover Slayer riffs". The band soon graduated to playing live performances in 1991 after recording some demos on a 4-track recorder.
