Overview

Severe Torture started back in 1997. From the original line-up Thijs (guitar), Patrick (bass) and Seth (drums) are still present nowadays. In 1998 they recorded the “Baptized in Virginal Liquid” demo, selling over 600 copies. But in spite of good reviews no decent record-deal was secured. Meanwhile (in 1999) vocalist Dennis joined in. The same year a 2-track promo was recorded and more live-shows were done with Immolation a.o. The promo was released as 7" EP by Damnation Records and in 2000 the band finally signed a deal with Dutch label Fadeless Records. Fadeless Records then merged with Hammerheart Records and in the meantime the band toured 9 days in a row through Europe with Damnation. Finally it was time to record their debut album “Feasting on Blood” together with Bertus Westerhuis & Robbie Woning at Franky’s Recording Kitchen and great cover artwork was designed by Joey Malony. In January 2001 Severe Torture hit the European road as support act for Macabre. In April 2001 Severe Torture played the Ohio Death Fest and a couple more U.S. shows to promote their debut album. Then in March 2002 the band recorded their second album “Misanthropic Carnage” (again at Franky’s Recording Kitchen) and Severe Torture toured the U.S. for the second time as support for Deeds of Flesh and on top of that great festival appearances were made at Ohio Death Fest & New England Metal Fest. In October 2002 Severe Torture toured Europe again as support for Cannibal Corpse, a highlight in their career so far! As a farewell to Karmageddon Media Severe Torture is now releasing a killer live album recorded by Tue Madsen (The Haunted) with cool additional bonus material.
