Hailing from Toronto, Canada, No Assembly Required (NAR) have come a long way since their formation in 1999. Over the years, the band has gone through many stages of evolution.

No Assembly Required was a vision in the mind of vocalist Luca back in 1998, but was actually formed by Luca and System 86 in early 1999. The duo scraped the local scene clean when searching for a rhythm section, finding Dmyze and T-rod. The 4-piece would write violent, angry, insane, and emotional driven music for the next generation of metal.

After various changes in lineup, the band finally parted ways in 2014. However, in 2023, they decided to reunite and wort to a new album, All Rise.
