Suffokate

Country of origin: United States Location: Oakland, California Status: Active Formed in: 2003 Genre: Technical Deathcore Lyrical themes: Violence, Triumph, Anti-religion, Inner Struggles, Depression Current label: Mediaskare Records Years active: 2003-present The spelling of the band's name was explained by ex-vocalist Ricky Hoover as being because a majority of the members of Suffokate are fans of nu metal. Its spelling with a "K" is an homage to bands with intentionally misspelled names such as Korn, Deftones, Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit.
