A Quick History Lesson:
Formed in the Netherlands in 1987, Asphyx has carved out a unique sound in death metal with their raw and aggressive approach. Combining fast blast beats with insane riffs running on a speed peace, just to hit into crushing doom passages, it’s just how they brought fast ‘n’ furious to the next level. And that’s how, my folks, Aspyx threw in the world’s face their first demo in ’88 – Carnage Remains.
Just so in 91′ to talk about The Rack – Asphyx’s first full-length and step into setting a standard of insanity that few could match.
After a hiatus starting in 2000, Asphyx roared back in 2007 with fresh forces, yet the same rotted delight led by iconic vocalist Martin van Drunen (ex-Pestilence). Their albums “Death… The Brutal Way” (2009), “Deathhammer” (2012), and “Incoming Death” (2016) have garnered universal praise, solidifying their status even further. With a stable lineup and a relentless commitment to their insanity, Asphyx remains even nowadays a legendary band ready to audiences with their trademark brutal riffs and uncompromising insanity.
