Graverobber

Graverobber is a doom/sludge metal band and guitarist David Poole's solo project. The band was formed in mid-2007.

Formation
David Poole, about a year after forming Anonymos, wanted to do a solo project. He named it Graverobber, as it was supposed to be a horror punk band. A bit after, though, David lost intrest in horror punk, and Graverobber was left without a style.

A few weeks later, though, David downloaded a song by The Sword, and liking their style, he made Graverobber a doom/sludge metal band. There is still a horror punk influence, in the lyrics.

Pre-Recording Empty Graves
The band will start pre-recording their debut album, Empty Graves, after Anonymos releases their first two albums, Self-Titled and ''Just Another Outtakes Album...NOT!!!.

Sound
Graverobber is a departure from David's other band, Anonymos. While Anonymos is hyper-fast with complex riffs and large amounts of experimentation, Graverobber is more in-your-face and straightforward. Graverobber is very slow-paced, but the riffs are insanely heavy and sludgey. That is combined with the overdriven, no-nonsense bass lines and some of the most aggressive drumming ever laid down on a recording track. The vocals help add a dark mood to each song, as David alternates between brutal death grunts, his strained voice, and shouting. The lyrics are reminiscent of horror punk, with gore being a theme. Overall, Graverobber is one of the heaviest, most pummelling, sludgiest doom metal band not on the market.

Influences
Graverobber has a myriad of influences. The Sword is the main influence, as Graverobber was formed off their style. The Misfits is the influence for the lyrical themes. Napalm Death is the influence for Davids strained voice.
