Biography

Started by Chuck Finale and Cameron Dalton in Spring 07, they quickly filled out with Niles and Jay. Influences range from Electric Wizard, Anaal Nathrakh, Black Sabbath, to Gustav Holst, and Arnold Schoenberg. This band plays doom metal with a weirdo / jazz / grindcore / funk / whatever edge and always puts on a good show.

Generals Gathered have opened for such ass kicking fellow Canadian metal bands as Gross Misconduct, The Womb, What's He Building In There, Scumbelly, Mudlark, Black Magic Pyramid, and Buried Inside. Also, they once almost opened for Disgust because they had all their gear in the parking lot for whatever reason and another opener bailed, but the promoter didn't really want them to, so they did not, and were instead content to just listen to Disgust.

They completed their first year of existence by completing a 5 track demo with no determined name, although several names have been considered, including: Metalavalanche, Two Mountains Fucking among others. We suggest you call it whatever you want.

Generals Gathered entered an extended hiatus while Chuck was out of town for school in 2008/2009, but continued playing in the summer of 2009, much to the delight of the band.
