Biography

There are multiple artists with this name:

1) Obliteration were spawned in Kolbotn (the hometown of Darkthrone), in 2001, and after some line-up changes, punk-style dabbling and experimentation with two bass players at the same time, it soon became clear that Death Metal was to be their future.

After releasing a demo in 2004, the young men got a great response from the Norwegian underground metal scene resulting in a vital gig at the high-profile Inferno festival in 2005, and pretty soon after, the 7” EP “Total Fucking Obliteration” was released on Duplicate Records/SoU. More gigs soon followed with bands like Aura Noir, Old and Dismember.

Obliteration recorded some rehearsal demos immediately after their Hole in the Sky festival appearance in mid-2006 (with Morbid Angel, Atheist, Celtic Frost and more) that led to their first record deal, when Nocturno Culto of Darkthrone signed them to his prestigious label Tyrant Syndicate, a sub-label of Peaceville Records, after being mightily impressed with what he was hearing.

In January 2007 the band entered Subsonic Society Studio with Lars Klokkerhaug (who has recorded/produced the likes of Enslaved, Darkthrone) to record this, their debut album “Perpetual Decay”, a slab of brutal metal done the way it should be.

2) Obliteration is a hardcore punk band from Massachusetts, USA. Featuring (ex-)members of Mind Eraser and Knife Fight. Released a self titled ep in 2008.

3) Obliteration started as Disgorge in Germany and soon after changed their name to Obliteration in 1995 and split up in early 2006. However, a split cd with Fleshripper (Ger) containing the old demos was released by Suffer Productions during the summer of 2006.

    Vitenant: the songs are kinda too long and slow for me and I cant get into that guitar thing they do where they're playing heavy and then make that high screeching note. I dunno what thats called, but that ruins a lot of metal for me. I can hear some hardcore influences like in the middle of 'catabombs of horror,' which is pretty interesting though.

    metal and punk are getting along since motorhead started playing(if not earlier), people are the ones who are building walls, which, fortunately, are obliterating

    hardcore obliteration rules. they dont have any albums, only 2 ep's, a self titled ep and "This is Tomorrow." We have Disfear in common for bands, and if you like those guys, you'll probably like this stuff.

    Yeah, really. Nekropsalms is on a whole 'nother level compared to Perpetual Decay.

    @ cipazesmietnika: I'm here for the hardcore/punk band, not the BR00TAL MURDERZ met0wl band. Also, I'd rather be a faggot than a metalhead. Only true losers listen to metal. Especially the "br00tal" kind.
