History

Incite was formed in late 2004. After gigging in the local area with Richie appearing on Soulfly's album Dark Ages and Cavalera Conspiracy's Inflikted, the quartet released an EP in 2007 entitled Divided We Fail, with track "Army of Darkness" being the first track posted by the group on MySpace.[4] 2007 also saw an overhaul of the original Incite lineup with Richie Cavalera the sole remaining original member as he sought to make the group more professional.[5] 2009 saw the release of debut LP The Slaughter and tours supporting groups such as Soulfly and The Dillinger Escape Plan, however soon the group parted ways with their record label.

After the group signed a deal with Minus Head Records, they began working on their sophomore effort All Out War, which was eventually released in November 2012. The album was produced by former Machine Head and Soulfly guitarist Logan Mader and was supported by the Maximum Cavalera Tour, with Soulfly (fronted by Richie's stepfather Max Cavalera) and Lody Kong (consisting of Richie's half brothers Zyon and Igor). During this time, guitarist Dis left the band and was replaced by Gene Macazan.

Drummer Zak Sofaly, bassist Luis Marrufo and guitarist Gene Macazan left Incite in 2013 for personal reasons. They were replaced by Derek Lopez, Christopher "EL" Elsten, and Dru Rome respectively; this lineup recorded the band's next three albums Up in Hell (2014), Oppression (2016), and Built to Destroy (2019). Shortly after the release of Built to Destroy, Rome was replaced by Eli Santana.

The band's sixth album, titled Wake Up Dead, was originally set to be released on March 25,[6] but was postponed to April 8, 2022, because of manufacturing issues.[7]
