The End were a Canadian mathcore/metalcore band based in Mississauga, Ontario. Their sound has been compared to that of Dillinger Escape Plan and deathgrind group Discordance Axis, as well as Neurosis.
The End formed in 1999; at that time the members were lead singer Tyler Semrick-Palmateer, guitarists Steve Watson and Andrew Hercules, bassist Sean Dooley, and percussionist Anthony Salajko.
The band's debut full-length album Transfer Trachea Reverberations from Point: False Omniscient was released in 2001, and won a Canadian independent music award for metal album of the year in 2002. The band then went on a tour in Canada and the US with Between the Buried and Me and Life Once Lost.
Their second album, Within Dividia was released in January, 2004 through Relapse Records. Their third album, Elementary, was released on Relapse Records in February, 2007. The band made some changes in their musical style for this album, including some partially sung vocals and more melodic song structure.
Their song "Throwing Stones" appeared on the soundtrack for the 2007 film The Hills Have Eyes 2.
In October 2007, The End cancelled a planned tour with Between The Buried And Me because guitarist Andrew Hercules had left the band. In 2008 The End contributed some music to a release by Ladyhawk titled Shots.
After the breakup of the band, bassist Sean Dooley and vocalist Aaron Wolff went on to form the band Solitary Sun.
