  • Kevorkian Death Cycle is an electro-industrial band from Riverside, California, USA. The band was originally named Grid and later changed their name to the politically motivated Kevorkian Death Cycle. The band released its first album, Collection for Injection, on the Ras Dva label. After a 1997 tour with Spahn Ranch, they became popular with the underground community. The band moved to the Metropolis label in 1998 and in the fall released their second album Dark Skies. They later played with Front 242 and went on tour with Front Line Assembly. In 1999, they released their third album, A+0(M). This album contained a cover of Frankie Goes to Hollywood's "Relax". They also went on their two-month "Free Jack" tour of North America. ("Jack" here refers to Jack Kevorkian. ) Collection for Injection was re-issued in 2000, and a re-mix single of their cover of "Relax" was released in 2001. As a side project, in the spring of 2006, Roger Jarvis hooked up with Taury Goforth from KiLLSWiTCH to form an Industrial/EBM/IDM band called HexRx.
  • I Kevorkian Death Cycle si formano a Los Angeles nei primissimi anni '90 dall'unione dei due tastieristi Ryan Gribbin e Roger Jarvis a Los Angeles, capitale della scena industrial del periodo e città natale di bands quali Penal Colony, Hate Dept. , e Interzone. I due danno quindi vita a un progetto che mescola coscienza sociale a suoni industrial e beats techno, originariamente sotto il nome di Grid. Con questo nome cominciano la loro avventura come crociati per il diritto alla morte, e nelle prime registrazioni scrivono molte canzoni sotto la bandiera di Kevorkian. Cambiano il loro nome in Kevorkian Death Cycle, la band realizza il loro primo album con la storica e ormai sparita Ras Dva label, dal titolo "Collection for Injection", e comincia ad apparire in numerose compilation.
  • Kevorkian Death Cycle is een Amerikaanse industrial-band uit Riverside, opgericht in 1996. De groep bestaat uit de huidige leden Ryan Gribbin, Roger Jarvis en Rob Robinson. Gewezen leden zijn gitaristen Greg Ripes en Travers Bell, alsook drummer Brett Cardamone. De groep heette oorspronkelijk Grid, maar veranderde haar naam naar Kevorkian Death Cycle, bij wijze van politiek statement: Jack Kevorkian is een in de Verenigde Staten bekende arts en activist die opgesloten werd omdat hij euthanasie verleende. Het eerste album van de groep, Collection for Injection, verscheen in 1997 op het label Ras Dva, en ze ondernamen een tournee met Spahn Ranch, waarmee ze de aandacht trokken in het underground-milieu. In 1998 verhuisden ze naar Metropolis Records, waarop ze hun tweede album, Dark Skies, uitbrachten. Ze speelden onder andere met Front 242 en Front Line Assembly. Hun derde album, A+0(M), uit te spreken als 'atom', verscheen in 1999; dit album bevatte een cover van het bekende nummer 'Relax' van Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Daarop gingen ze op een twee maand durende tournee, getiteld Free Jack, verwijzend naar dokter Kevorkian. In 2000 werd het debuutalbum Collection for Injection heruitgebracht; de single 'Relax' in 2001. De stijl van Kevorkian Death Cycle bestaat uit vlakke industrial, met ruwe elektronische beats en samples.
