Band biography
Insision photo
INSISION crawled out of the depth of Stockholm in the beginning of 1997. The band was formed out of the ashes of underground acts like EMBALMER and ILDOOR. Soon the band was a four piece containing guitarists Patrik Muhr and Joonas Ahonen along with drummer Thomas Daun and vocalist Johan Thornberg. Their first musical sign came in may 1998 when the demo "Ment to Suffer" was released. This tape was one of the most brutal and promising tapes ever in the swedish Death Metal underground, and it was widely praised.

Later in 1998 Patrik Muhr was replaced by the amazingly skilled Roger Johansson, formerly guitarist of DISFIGURED. Roger immediately took musical command within the band, driving INSISION towards new hights of technical brutality. Now the record labels started to notice the band, and in the late 98 INSISION signed for Heathendoom Music. The debut MCD "The Dead Live On" was recorded in just a few days at the Necromorbus Studio in January 1999, and released just one month later.

INSISIONs debut was a milestone in brutal swedish death metal, it sounded like no other swedish band had ever sounded before. The worldwide response was massive. Roger and Tomas urge to drive the bands musical approach even further soon made Jonas and Johan to leave the band too, the bass player INSISION had used up to this date also had to give up his duties in the band. The two remaining members now started to create an even more grinding and complex kind of Death Metal full time. Months of hard rehearsing brutalized and perfected the bands style. There was only one problem: lack of members.

But like a gift from "below" Daniel Ekeroth, the bass player of DELLAMORTE, soon offered himself to pick up the bass for INSISION. Now the weels really started to turn, and soon former AZATOTH singer Carl Birath joined as singer. With the amazing skills of Daniel and Carl, INSISION was on the move again - big time!

A few live shows followed with bands like DARK FUNERAL, MERCILESS and THE HAUNTED, and INSISION was hailed everywhere for their excellent performances. In May 2000 they enter the Real Studio to put some new tracks on tape. The result "Promo 2000" is just stunning - brutality and precision to the limit! INSISION had by this time developed a uniqe style of their own, with sick sound, complex but catchy riffs and blasting drums. The whole world was amazed, and offers from bigger labels started to show up.

More shows followed, with bands like HYPOCRISY and SOILS of FATE, and everybody hailed the band wherever they got. But INSISION still had new ideas for their music, and was constantly seeking for a second guitarist skilled enough to team up alongside the other members. A very difficult task it was, nobody seemed to able to follow the complex structure and speed of INSISIONS riffing. But suddenly they found the ultra-talanted guitarist Toob Brynedal, former guitarist and vocalist of GENOCIDE FEROX. He joins in march 2001, and INSISION soon has their debut show as a five-piece as opening act for DISGORGE (mex). The show is a complete success, INSISION once again proves to be one of the best live acts within the metal scene. The band seems to go from strength to strength.

INSISION soon enters the Necromorbus Studio again to record an earlier planned 10" split E.P with INVERACITY for greek label Nuclear Winter. The recording is also out as a demo under the name "Revelation of the Sado God". The new songs proved to be even more intense and twisted than the old ones, leaving everybody who listens to it totally exhausted. This was Death Metal in its perfection! It wasn't long until a deal between INSISION and Earache/Wicked World was signed.

And the rest is fucking history man!!!
