Neurosis

Formed in Oakland, California by Scott Kelly, Dave Edwardson and Jason Roeder in 1985 as a hardcore punk band. Over the years their sound progressed towards a sludge/doom metal style that also included influences from dark ambient and industrial music as well as incorporating elements of folk music.


The band runs their own independent record label [l=Neurot Recordings] since the late 1990s.

In August 2022 the band announced that Scott Kelly was expelled from Neurosis in 2019.
