History

Formation

One day, during music lessons, David Poole met with guitarist Greg Stahl, who was his teacher. After they made some song ideas, they formed a band called "The Cedar Pointers". Chris Poole, Davids twin brother, was going to learn how to play bass, so he joined the band. A bit after Chris joined, the band switched their name to Anonymös due to pending legal issues. Casey Grebe, Chris's freind, expressed intrest as the bands drummer. The band, looking for a drummer, let him join.

Pre-Recording Self-Titled

After Chris joined the band, they signed under Summit Records and started pre-recording their debut album, Self-Titled. At this time, they didnt have a drummer, so they used a drum machine instead.

Music

Sound

All of Anonymös's songs have fast tempos and high amounts of experimentation. Odd time signatures, unusual sounds and technique, and time signature changes are often utilized. Sludgy, dissonant breakdowns are a key part to each song. Anonymos's overdriven guitar riffs are often technical, complex, and consist of power chords and minor barre chords. A common technique in their songs is to combine palm muting and tremolo picking or alternate picking. The basslines in Anonymos's songs are sometimes modified with effects. The drumming is very propellant and heavy, while the vocals are a combination of Chris's hardcore-styled shouting and David's varied vocal styles, with Greg singing during the breakdowns.

Influences

The band cites Metallica and System of a Down as the biggest influences.
