The End was a Canadian band specializing in mathcore and metalcore, originating from Mississauga, Ontario. Their musical style was often likened to that of The Dillinger Escape Plan, the deathgrind act Discordance Axis, and Neurosis.

History

The band was established in 1999 by vocalist Tyler Semrick-Palmateer, guitarists Steve Watson and Andrew Hercules, bassist Sean Dooley, and drummer Anthony Salajko. Their first album, Transfer Trachea Reverberations from Point: False Omniscient, was released in 2001 and earned the Canadian independent music award for metal album of the year in 2002. After this release, they embarked on a US tour alongside The Abandoned Hearts Club, followed by tours across Canada and the United States with Between the Buried and Me and Life Once Lost.

In January 2004, their sophomore effort Within Dividia was issued via Relapse Records. The group once again toured Canada with The Abandoned Hearts Club. Their third studio album, Elementary, arrived in February 2007 through Relapse Records, showcasing a transition toward more melodic elements and incorporating partially sung vocals. The song "Throwing Stones" from this album was included on the soundtrack of the 2007 movie The Hills Have Eyes 2.

The band has been inactive since 2008, with speculation that internal tensions following guitarist Andrew Hercules’s exit in 2007 contributed to their hiatus.
