Inspired by the Sunday hardcore matinees of New York’s legendary club CBGB’s and the thrash metal nights at Brooklyn's L'Amours, the band Enrage was formed by childhood friends. The band’s first proper demo “Burning Within” was produced by Josh Silver of Type O Negative selling over 3,000 copies. Enrage became fortunate enough to play with a wide variety of bands such as: Agnostic Front, Bad Brains, Biohazard, Carnivore, Cro-Mags, Dog Eat Dog, E Town Concrete, Full Blown Chaos, Gwar, Hatebreed, Kreator, Leeway, Life of Agony, Michale Graves of The Misfits, Murphy’s Law, Morbid Angel, Only Living Witness, Overkill, Prong, Sick 0f It All, Thy Will Be Done, Type O Negative and Vision of Disorder. The CD “Empty” was produced by Noah Evans, who had previously worked with the Beastie Boys, Bad Brains, Cro-Mags, and Sick Of It All. Millions of listeners heard Howard Stern play "Cooper", a cut from the CD , read the lyrics and give Enrage a positive review over the airwaves. The band regrouped with a new lineup and released "Nothing Stays Buried." Nothing Stays Buried climbed to the Top 25 of the CMJ Loud Rock charts upon its release. In early 2015, Enrage released Gateways Vol. I. - the first of a three volume EP set. This hard hitting release features guest vocals by Paul Bearer from Sheer Terror and was mastered by Grammy Award winning engineer, Brad Blackwood (Gateways Vol. II followed thereafter and featured the metal radio charting song “This Is Sacred.”
