The No Return story starts in 1989. It’s the professionalism, the powerful and personal metal compositions that will lead the new label, Semetary Records to sign with the band. They become their number one reference. No Return is sent to Germany, at the Phoenix studio, to record their first album, produced by Coroner’s drummer, Marquis Marky. The baby called ‘’Psychological torment’’, is a great hit in Germany and in France. This success is followed by tours, concerts…
After creating even more powerful compositions, the band flies to the notorious Morrisound Studio at Tempa (Florida).Tom Morris is in charge this time, the famous director and sound engineer known for his work with MORBID ANGEL, CORONER, SAVATAGE …
The second album is released in 1992 by the label FNAC Production and is named ‘’Contamination Rises’’. The band imposes itself as one of the jewels of metal industry. This album stays a reference and was classed in the German ‘’top 30’’. Fallow concerts and tours…
No Return travels to Switzerland to record their third album at the ‘’Studio des Forces Motrices’’ engineered by David Weber (YOUNG GODS , KILL THE THRILL, LOFOFORA ,TREPONEM PAL …). The album ‘’Season’s of Soul’’ sees the light at the end of the year 95, thanks to the FNAC production WMD label. The band plays a few concerts before leaving for the BRUTAL Tour with MASSACRA, LOUDBLAST and CRUSHER that took end at the ‘’Elysée Montmartre’’ in Paris.
‘’Red Embers’’, a maxi 6 title, is again recorded with David Weber at his studio and released spring 1997 by ARCADE (CNR) label. The band hits the road once more…
No Return welcomes a new singer in march 1999. And a second guitar player will join the band, followed by a key board and sample player. The new formation works on the fifth album and the compositions turn out to be more brutal then usual and once the samples added, a new dimension is brought to No Return. End 1999, the band starts recording the album, in France, at Alexis Phelipot (drummer from the band Misanthrope)’s Studio (Dru Nemeton Studio).
