Biography
Birmingham, United Kingdom (1999 – 2009)
1) Mistress, a sludge metal / grindcore band formed in Birmingham, England in 1999. After their second gig in January 2000, the venue used was suddenly closed down within a week. A pattern was thus established & Mistress have continued in the same vein since. After reviews such as ‘…one the of the most incendiary gigs I’ve seen in years’ and ‘like a 300 pound hill-billy about to smash your head in with a crowbar’, UK underground label Rage of Achilles were impressed enough to agree to release the first two Mistress albums.
The 1st self titled album of ‘total fucking antisocial doom/grind/sludge’ received, among other reviews, 5ks in Kerrang and a place in the Terrorizer magazine albums of the year poll. Quotes at the time included ‘after listening to the first Mistress album, I felt like I needed a shower. And probably would have had not “Mistress” induced such a state of depression I couldn’t get up off the couch’. A song taken from the album and put on a split 7” with doom lords Sally was even picked up on by Radio 1’s John Peel for airplay on his show. There were gigs with Electric Wizard, Medulla Nocte, Extreme Noise Terror, Bolt Thrower (one review of the Camden gig with Bolt Thrower and Benediction included ‘putting Mistress on this bill is like pissing in your kid’s dinner’), as well an appearance at the semi-legendary Morrowfest in Nottingham.
The second album from the ‘Lords of all that is wrong’ entitled ‘The Chronovisor’ was released in late 2003.

Saw Anaal tonight at Bloodstock for the first time properly, it's taken me far too long to get around to listening to them, I first got into Mistress when they played at the Angel in Nottingham back in about 2004, I do miss them but AN is another level of heaviness.

Wish I'd have made more effort to see Fukpig and Anaal Nathrakh at this years Damnation, didn't really work out time wise though. Since last weekend I've spent most days listening to Mistress though.
