Been there… done that… still doing it!
Hailing from Porto [Portugal], gathered in the fall of 97 by Z. Pedro with the aim of creating the most brutal band in Portugal.
Unanimously considered the most extreme and well known Portuguese Death Gore Grind outfit on the scene today the intentions of this band have always been the same… sheer ultimate brutality without compromising originality. Infamous for their awesome live shows with gore choreographies [mostly as headliner on underground festivals] and the absolutely sick covers [put even hardened eyes to a severe test], lead the band to quickly achieve a respected cult status in their native country as well as different other countries with a really strong and ever growing fan base.
Released stuff through 14 different labels from countries such as: Brasil, Colombia, Germany, Indonesia, Italy, Portugal, United States besides the fact that all releases were massive distributed worldwide.
