Band Information
I Exist is a band from Canberra playing a mixture of hardcore and bottom-heavy sludge. Originally formed in 2008, the band issued a self-released EP the following year before linking up with Resist Records for the full-length follow-up in 2010. Pod People guitarist Josh Nixon joined the band after this as I Exist developed a massive triple-guitar assault with stylistic similarities to bands like Eyshategod and Iron Monkey. 2011 was the group's busiest year, with their excellent second album released just ahead of a national tour with Doomriders in July and appearances at most of the mainland Bastardfests in September/October.
