Are you fed up with all the melodic crap that has emerged from Sweden during the last years? Have you given up the hope for the Swedish scene? Did you in fact thought it was dead? Well, you were dead wrong mate - the blasting mayhem of INSISION will surely make you bang your head once again!

Short brief history...

1997: INSISION crawled out of the ashes of underground acts EMBALMER and ILDOOR, the aim was to create brutal Death Metal in absurdum. The war against the melodic Swedish metal-trend was started.

1998: Debut demo "Meant to Suffer " is released, and INSISION is acclaimed as one of the most promising new Death metal acts of Sweden. Soon after Roger of DISFIGURED joins the band, immediately taking musical command & drives the band towards new heights of technical brutality. The record labels starts to notice INSISION, and in the end of the year they sign for Heathendoom Music.

1999: The debut MCD "The Dead Live On" is recorded at the Necromorbus Studio, and released shortly after.(Also re-released by Immortal souls pro. 2002)The album was different compared to other brutal Swedish Death Metal bands, no other Swedish band had ever sounded as American as INSISION. After this, Roger & drummer Tomas developed the technical brutality of the band even further, resulting in massive line-up changes. INSISION soon recruits DELLAMORTEs bass player Daniel Ekroth and AZATOTHs singer Carl Birath. The new line-up begins a row of live-shows with bands like Dark Funeral, Merciless and The Haunted.

2000: A new demo "Promo 2000" is recorded at the Real Studio. The result is sheer brutality & precision to the limit! After this, more shows followed with HYPOCRISY, NECROPHOBIC, MERCILESS etc. Now INSISION really showed what they where made of!


2001: Guitarist Toob of GENOCHRUSH FEROX joins the band, and INSISION soon had their debut show as a five-piece as opening act for DISGORGE (mex). Necromorbus Studio is visited once again to record an earlier planned 10" split E.P with INVERACITY for Nuclear Winter (also out as a demo under the name "Revelation of the Sado God"). Shortly after INSISION signs to Earache/Wicked World. In October, the full-length debut "Beneath the Folds of the Flesh" is recorded in the mighty Berno Studio (THE HAUNTED, DERANGED etc).

2002: "Beneath the Folds of the Flesh" is set for release in April, and massive touring all over Europe is planned during the spring & summer. So be prepared to be brutalized by the immense violence of INSISION!
