\nWhen it comes to seminal death metal bands from North America, the East Coast alone boasts the likes of the genre’s greatest staples: Death, Cynic, Morbid Angel, Immolation, and Nile. Perhaps in response to Virginia’s political conservativism and the state\u2019s legacy of the Baptist religion (in addition to being known as \u201cMother of Presidents\u201d because it is the birthplace of eight former U.S. presidents), it’s no surprise that band founder\/songwriter\/guitarist\/lead vocalist James Malone adopted a mantra of courageous insurgence and very early on in his life \u2013 especially in the musical realm. ARSIS, which derived its name from the musical term “arsis and thesis” meaning unstressed (up-) and stressed (down-) beats respectively, makes music that is righteously tinged with black & thrash metal influences, but is completely dedicated to expanding the reaches of melodicism and technicality in the genre of death metal.

\nBrought together through a mutual respect for King Diamond and formed during Christmas vacation in Boston in 2000 by Berklee College of Music students James Malone (an already skilled violinist and a composition major) and double-bass connoisseur Mike Van Dyne (a drum performance major and rumored octopus), the duo recorded a 3-song demo in 2001 and a 5-song demo in 2002 simply to amuse themselves over winter break.
