Band biography Upload photo

Infernal Method is a melodic death metal band from Sydney, Australia. The band began as a solo project for guitarist Petar Peric but when the band for which he was playing bass, DeadSpawn, ended in mid-2001 he began to develop the act into a complete band. The first line-up featured himself on guitar, plus Deadspawn guitarist Aaron Bilbija (Daysend) and drummer Grahame Goode who had also featured in an early version of Deadspawn plus other Sydney bands such as Neophobia and Automation. Automation provided bass player Michael Kordek (Daysend). Former Depression vocalist Shane Thompson was recruited shortly afterward and the band made its first appearance at Metal For The Brain that year, where they were billed as Deadspawn due to the line-up yet to finalise a new name.

In early 2002, the band played its first show under the name Infernal Method in Sydney. By this time only Peric and Goode was left of the original line-up. Kordek had been replaced by Syphilis member Lee Glanzmann, Bilbija had departed for Sydney thrash band Psi.Kore and was subsequently replaced by that band's guitarist Andrew Lilley and Thompson had been replaced by Joss Separovic. Infernal Method played consistently throughout 2002 and began working on an album, only to lose Separovic for several months and hence activity ceased. The singer had rejoined by early 2003 but in May Lilley was replaced in the band by Jamie Stinsson, who under the name Astennu had been a member of Norwegian black metal band Dimmu Borgir.

The album remained unreleased while Infernal Method continued to play live, although less frequently. By mid-2004, Goode and Stinsson were also playing in a hardcore band called Stronger Than Hate and in August Infernal Method disbanded.

Peric and Goode served a short tenure with Sydney power metal band Dungeon into early 2005, then reformed Infernal Method with Matt Sorrenson from Syphilis replacing Astennu. Separovic then left once again, with Evan Williams (ex Flesh Mechanic) taking his place. With this line-up, Infernal Method toured nationally for the first time supporting Swedish death metal band "Insision", then re-recorded the never-released debut album that was issued at last in December 2005, shortly after a tour with Sweden's "Arch Enemy".

At the end of 2005 the band was suffering from strains within the band which subsequently resulted in the departure of Peric and Glanzmann in the early stages of 2006. The remaining members then recruited Switchblade guitarist Andrew Najdek and Gerard Dack (None Shall Pass) on Bass Guitar.

Peric returned to Infernal Method in August of 2006 in time for a supporting tour with Swedish Melodic Death Metal Pioneers "Dark Tranquillity" which saw them playing both the Sydney and Melbourne leg of the tour.

Infernal Method have been at the cutting edge of Australia's Underground Metal Scene since its inception. Playing live shows with machine like precision, forging new grounds in technicality, and musicianship in a genre which is prevalently dominated by European bands.
