Biography
ASP were formed in 1999 by Alexander Frank Spreng (aka ‘Asp’) and Matthias Ambré, producing their first 3-track demo CD later that year. The following year saw a record deal with Trisol, who released the bands debut album ‘Hast Du mich vermisst?’, as well as the bands first live performance, at the ‘Gothicworld’ festival (having added a bassist, drummer and a choir section to the line-up).
The following three years saw the release of two further albums ‘Duett’ and ‘Weltunter’, which, along with the debut, formed the album series ‘Der Schwarze Schmetterling’ (The Black Butterfly). ASP also became a popular live act over these years, regularly appearing at high profile festivals.
The band suffered some difficulty in 2004 with the bankruptcy of distributor EFA, though their albums were reissued later that year, along with the ‘Interim Works Compendium’, a 2CD collection of ASP rarities as well as selected tracks from their three albums to date. Another string of live dates took them through to the release of ‘Aus der Tiefe’ in May 2005, the fourth part of the ‘Der Schwarze Schmetterling’ series. The fifth part ‘Requiembryo’ followed in 2007.
