Nutricula is a band that was formed in the winter of 2007 in Fort Collins, Colorado, by Reed Perry, Josh Rivera and Robert Barnett. Mike Grace quickly assumed bass duties. Together, they create an eclectic mix of heavy metal, rock, thrash, death metal, and a little bit of groove. Shortly after forming, Kevin Pack joined and was a perfect fit as a vocalist. His great singing voice combined with his brutal screams help to complete Nutricula and their unique sound.
Why this name?
Turritopsis nutricula is a hydrozoan (jellyfish) with a life cycle in which it reverts back to the polyp stage after becoming sexually mature. It is the first case in which an animal is capable of reverting completely to a sexually immature, colonial stage after having reached sexual maturity as a solitary stage. It does this through the cell development process of transdifferentiation. This cycle then repeats, rendering it effectively immortal.
