Opprobrium Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Opprobrium is an American death metal band from Metairie, Louisiana, United States. Founded in 1986 by brothers Francis and Moyses Howard under the name Incubus, Natives of Rio de Janeiro, the Howards emigrated to New Orleans and formed the band. The original incarnation featured bassist/lead vocalist Scot Latour. LaTour departed soon afterwards, leaving Francis to take over vocal duties. The band eventually tabbed Mark Lavenia as the full-time bassist. But shortly thereafter, in 1991, the band disbanded, then reappeared after a ten-year break from the music business, being forced to change their name in order to avoid confusion with newly emerging rock band Incubus from California. Opprobrium is noted for their particular style, a death/thrash metal crossover, combined with lyrics about death, violence and reality. Opprobrium is currently signed to the German metal label High Roller Records. - Former/past member(s): Luiz Carlos - Rhythm Guitar (1999-2000) (Seventh Plague (r.i.p./ Brazil) Andre Luiz - Bass (1999-2000) Mark Lavenia - Bass (1990-1992) (Beyond The Unknown tour 1991.
