About Unearth
Unearth is a metalcore band from Winthrop, MA, formed in 1998.
Unearth formed in Winthrop, Massachusetts, in 1998 and came up in the same New England metalcore scene as Killswitch Engage. Vocalist Trevor Phipps and guitarist Buz McGrath have been the constant core, and the band's records borrow heavily from Swedish melodic death metal in their guitar leads.
After the debut The Stings of Conscience, the band signed to Metal Blade for The Oncoming Storm in 2004, then followed with III: In the Eyes of Fire, The March, Darkness in the Light, Watchers of Rule, Extinction(s) and The Wretched; the Ruinous. Onstage the guitarists spend as much time moving as playing.
