Biography
Northampton MA, United States (2005 – present)
Deathmøle is a virtual post-metal band created by Jeph Jacques in 2005. The band currently comprises three characters from his comic, Questionable Content: Marten Reed (Lead Guitar), Amir Afridi (Bass Guitar), and Hannelore Ellicott-Chatham (Drums). Formerly, the band also included Natasha (Sonic Texturalist/Keyboard), who left in 2008.
Jeph originally released Deathmøle songs through his livejournal, as well as through a proprietary music page on QC’s website (now defunct), but eventually switched to his tumblr and then to Bandcamp. To date, Deathmøle has released eight albums, an EP, and a one-song demo called Death From Below. While Deathmøle’s first song showcases a downtempo slowcore-ish vibe, their work almost immediately switched to Isis, Pelican, Cult of Luna and Cloudkicker-esque post-metal, a style they have consistently maintained ever since.
According to QC lore, the band members all first met in Northampton, Massachusetts, where Marten worked as an office bitch, Amir as a waiter, Hannelore ran an online business, and Natasha attended post-secondary school at Smif College. The band took its first form when Natasha and Amir met at the restaurant where Amir worked, upon which Natasha recognized him as the owner of a tooth she had kicked out his face at a Converge show two weeks earlier. Sometime later, they had the idea to start an electro-spaz post-hardcore band, with Amir on bass and Natasha on keyboards.
