History
Born in 2009 As Likely As Not grew fast in extreme music, following their natural roots in hardcore and thrash-death metal underground. In 2010 they start recording the first full lenght album mix and mastered in Sweden by Pelle Seather and Goran Finnberg. With lots of gigs and festival the band became very popular in the underground and they were contacted from the “The Execution Kollektive” label through Eye Carver management. The 28th march "Stand Up and Nerve" came out in shops and iTunes store, with a promotional video of the song “My Last Confession ”.

The first European "No Way Out Tour" came on May 2012, in particular in Russia and Ukraine, where they were the headliner band of all shows; after they've shared stages with some international band like Texas in July, they started the second European Tour "Unpredictable Tour 2012" as headliner around Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, on October/November 2012.

On September 2012 new single “Secrects and Lies” mixed in U.S.A. by Logan Mader (Machine Head, Gojira, Soulfly etc.) and Fabio De Buglio see the light with some changes in the line up of the band.
