Larva (2)

The project was born on 1998 in Barcelona - Spain, by the hand of InqUesT and Blackend with the name ‘Morbid Mind’. With experimenter feel and focused towards electro-industrial sounds; they self-produce some tapes that are distributed by his circle of friendship, without major impact. On the year 2003, this time in solitary and with renewed forces, InqUesT gives a new course to the project, changing his name to 'Larva'. Due to the technical, social and ideological changes in the band. Now more involved in social topics and with a more powerful sound; more noises and hardness, without losing an apex of his darkness. In the beginning of 2006 the formation had enriched by the contribution of two new members (M.L. and Anoxia). That give more complex and diverse compositions, and more hard and full of energy live shows. The first record contract arrives with the CD ‘Diogenes Syndrome’ under Komblok Records (www.komblok.com); who distributes the album in digipack format towards USA and Europe. The year 2007 starts with the new band’s album ‘Autosectarismo’; self-produced; and distributed worldwide. At year 2008 Larva signs with Advoxya Records for the release of ‘Voces del laberinto’; that has been masterized by Jan (X-Fusion, Noisuf-X, etc.). The cd will include two videos as a bonus tracks.

During 20 days and in a lot of Mexican cities (DF, Puebla, Toluca, Tehuacan, Tijuana, etc), Larva was playing a lot of live shows; with great reviews in the media. The same year, Alfa-Matrix releases the compilation Endzeit Bunkertracks V with the Larva’s song ‘Come with me’. Larva remixes Unter Null in their new CD ‘Moving on’ On 2010, Larva launches the remix CD ‘Entre agujas’ under Advoxya Records again. A lot of friends of the band collaborate in the creative process of this album, like (Asseptic Room, Tech Nomader, Extinction Front, Deadjump, etc). Then another USA/Mexico Tour came again. This time, 35 days and a lot of great live shows; including Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
