Contrive are a heavy metal band from Melbourne, Australia formed in 1999 and signed to Shock Records. Their musical style has been compared to that of Sepultura. [1]

The band consists of bassist Tim Stahlmann and twin brothers Paul Haug (vocals, guitars) and Andrew Haug (drums). Andrew Haug is perhaps better known as the host of the weekly Triple J metal radio program Full Metal Racket.

The band have performed extensively since their inception and include three performances at the (now defunct) Metal For The Brain festival as well as opening slots for overseas bands which include Sepultura, Mayhem, Machine Head and Destruction. [2].
