Forming after the break up of various other projects, Iscariot has accomplished a gread deal from its first show in September 2004. Its strong DIY work ethic has allowed it to build a very strong fan base among both metal and hardcore fans especially in the Mid-West. In the process Iscariot sold well over 2,000 copies of its 2004 EP with very little promotion other than intense live shows.

With "Lifeless Design" the band has written an intensely heavy album full of intense riffs and breakneck changes. Harmonizing, riffing, unyielding drumming and exceptional vocal delivery permeate "Lifeless Design" recalling what made the extreme metal of the 90's classic. Riff after riff, Iscariot deliver well-crafted songs that are as memorable as they are merciless.
