Originally the solo project of multi-instrumentalist Wes Lopez (La Ghost, Channel), In Covert expanded into a full band in late 2022 with the addition of drummer Oscar Ruvalcaba (The Warlocks, All Your Sisters, Flaamingos), bassist Victor Guitarrez (Phaeic, Sodaboxx), and guitarist/vocalist Kris Balocca (Phaeic, Urns & Argyles). Together, they formed a powerhouse of crashing drums, pulsing bass, and layered distortion, building a sound that is both hypnotic and punishing. Drawing inspiration from the primal intensity of Christian Death, the mechanical grind of Godflesh, and the bleak sonic landscapes of Have a Nice Life, their music blurs the line between beauty and brutality.
In Covert’s energetic music explores sci-fi and horror themes through a meat grinder fed with gothic-tinged punk, noise, doom metal, shoegaze, and industrial.
