Khadaver is an Industrial/Electro/Blackened Metal band from Preöov, Slovak Republic. The band was formed in early 2006 by Nihil Nix and so far they have released one demo in 2008, one digital EP in 2010 and one album in 2012.

1. Formation and first demo (2006-2008)

At the end of 2005, by placing the ad in various on-line forums and music shops, Nihil got response from a drummer Necrocyklo he briefly knew from other bands in Preöov. Then unnamed duo started to rehearse at the beginning of 2006.

After few weeks of rehearsals, Necrocyklo's friend Hu-Zhvak was asked to join the band on bass guitar. The last member to join was lead vocalist Nekro Mantikk which was discovered by Nihil through demo tapes he got his hands on. Around that time the name Khadaver was chosen to represent the band. The first gig was played on Halloween night in 2006 at local rock club where Khadaver gained fair attention and recognition.

During the year 2007, the band worked on new material and was preparing to record a demo. In December 2007 Necrocyklo was asked to leave the band because his lack of interest in the band. Khadaver decided to use drum machine instead of live drummer further on. After Necrocyklo's departure they recorded and released the demo "Beta Version" in Summer 2008 on the Internet and in Decemeber 2008 on CD. Also, in December 2008 there was first interview with Nihil published in Slovak rock and metal magazine (now dysfunctional) Rock Planet. Throughout the year 2009 the demo was promoted via varous webzines and magazines worldwide and by playing gigs in Slovakia.

2. GOD-RW (2010)

At the beginning of 2010, Khadaver revealed recording of new websingle to be released in mid of April. In March 2010, bass player Hu-Zhvak left, decreasing count of former members to two. Not so long after, the band introduced new bass player Syonix Khalt, who became full time member. Recording process took longer than the band firstly intended, resulting into release of free downloadable EP "GOD-RW" in September 2010. It was available for free download at band's website.

Not even month after the release of the EP, Nekro Mantikk left the band without any previous indications to do so. After unsucessful search for new singer it was decided that Syonix would take the position (apart from bass playing).

3. New World Disorder (2012)

At the beginning of 2011, new live guitar player was introduced under the nickname Cyanide Dreth. The band played first two gigs abroad with this lineup in March 2011 - Pilsen and Prague, Czech Republic.

In March 2011 the band released press info that they will be recording new CD with working title "Opus Novum". The CD was mixed by Nihil and mastered by 5k0tt Mazzend of Italian act T3CHN0PH0B1A (T3CHN0PH0B1A also provided remix of title track on EP "GOD-RW").
