Ravenous Biography
The politically inclined industrial outfit Ravenous has been delivering its brash take on present society since their inception in 1996. That same year, they released their debut Mass Mental Cruelty on the German label Off Beat and the Lemmings EP followed a year later. It was also during this time that Ravenous parted ways with the fledgling Off Beat and signed with the U.S. label Jarret Records in 1998, the label which released the band's sophomore effort No Retreat and No Surrender on Zoth Ommog. Metropolis Records distributed Ravenous' "Silverray" single in mid-2000. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
