Merauder  

Merauder emerged straight from the hardcore scene of New York in the early nineties, opting for a more metallic sound while retaining hardcore cred. Thus, though labelled metalcore, "hardcore metal" might be a better term, as this band doesn't sound like the wave of current metalcore acts, instead opting for a more traditional power/thrash metal base, topped with angry, hateful vocals courtesy of Jorge Rosado. Three albums were recorded between 1995 and 2003 with varying lineups, Rosado put together an all-new lineup and a fourth album, God Is I, was released in 2009.

Current Members Jorge Rosado vocals Darian Polach lead guitar Dave Stafford guitars (Enertia) Drew Smerdon bass Bobby Blood drums
