Infrahumano + Holycide + Cancer + Misery Index ┼ live at Kanekas, Cangas do Morrazo (Esp) 26.07.2024


 

 


 

 


 Infrahumano was born in 2014 in Vigo, Spain, with Fabio Angelli (guitars), Damián Álvarez (drums) and Maury (bass and vocals).
In the year 2017 they recorded their first demo "Thousand Eyes", a little later in the same year Alex Durán joined the band remaining the current and definitive formation of Infrahumano.
Then in 2019 they recorded their debut album "Echoes of Decay".

 

 

 

 


 

 


 

 


 

 


 

 


 

 


 

 


 

 


 

 


 

 



The origins of Holycide can be found back in 2004 before the new wave of Thrash Metal exploded massively when Dave Rotten (AVULSED) wanted to start up a Thrash Metal project for what he joined Vicente from GOLGOTHA on guitars. The intention, from the very beginning, was to create a very aggressive kind of Thrash, exempt of commercial touches and focusing on the intense side of this kind of music.

However, due to the lack of commitment of Vicente, years were passing on and nothing really came out of it until in 2009 a replacement for Vicente was found in Ricardo Moreno, a friend who was live session guitarist for AVULSED during some shows and a full European tour during that year. Ricardo proved to be a good choice and everything went well, even two demo songs were written and recorded in 2010, but from one day to another, Ricardo suddenly decided to quit after summer of the same year because he wanted to concentrate on a new solo project that needed all his time and dedication.


So again, Holycide was on hibernation process until in spring 2012, a new guitarist called Miguel Bárez joined the project. Miguel was also live session guitarist for AVULSED, but at the time he was still running his main band INNTRANCE. Songs were being slowly written until in summer 2013, Miguel asked bass player Daniel Fernández to join the project. Dani was long time friend of Miguel, who played in INNTRANCE some years before ('06-'10) as well as in DARK MOOR ('04-'08 & actually) and was currently playing in VIOLENT EVE although he also left that band a couple of months later due to personal reasons.

The incorporation of Dani was what definitely gave fresh motivation to Holycide and he helped to finalize the three songs already written plus two new ones. A total of 5 songs that were destined to become the first demo of the band. The intention was always to keep this as a project band using programmed drumming so the 5 songs were roughly recorded like this during autumn 2013, adding vocals to two of them in December of the same year.

Already in January 2014 we did our first rehearsal as a trio and it went really good, but some weeks later, Miguel suggested the idea of adding two new members into Holycide and making it a full band with Jorge Utrera (drums) and Salva Esteban (guitar), so in March, the very first official rehearsal of Holycide took place!! Incredible!! It took 10 years to achieve this point, something we never really wanted to go beyond than a simple project to have fun playing Thrash, now was a full band!!

So now the perspective of Holycide changed drastically and we decided to keep the two recorded songs with vocals, as the first band's demo releasing it only on cassette format just for ourselves (only 5 copies made, haha!) and then re-recording all 5 songs with the full line-up for an EP. This EP in form of a 6-song mini CD & cassette entitled "Toxic Mutation", was recorded during the second half of 2014 and release through Xtreem Music in February 2015.

Between 2015 and first half of 2016, Holycide played some local shows and wrote 9 new songs and a cover of DÉTENTE for their debut full length album "Annihilate… Then Ask!" that was finally recorded during summer 2016 and released on CD, 12"LP and Cassette formats through Xtreem Music in February 2017.

Holycide was busy playing across Spain (and one show in Italy) during 2017-2019 presenting their new album, sharing stage with bands like FLOTSAM AND JETSAM, ONSLAUGHT, D.R.I., HELSTAR, EXUMER, TRALLERY, ASOMVEL, NO RETURN, GOD DETHRONED, ALKOHOLIZER and many others. At the same time, a new album was being writing and between April-July 2019, HOLYCIDE entered again Cadillac Blood Studios to record their 2nd full length album "Fist to Face" to be released in February 14th, 2020 through Xtreem Music (CD/12"LP/Cassette - World), MDD Rec. (CD - G/A/S) and Spiritual Beast (CD - Japan). Since the album came out coinciding with the start of the covid-19, "Fist to Face" has not been able to be presented live and it is in 2022 when Holycide intends to "relaunch" said work.

In August 2022, the first line-up change in Holycide takes place with the departure of Dani Fernández for family reasons, and in his place Vicente J. Payá (UNBOUNDED TERROR, GOLGOTHA, DECRAPTED, BIS NTE, etc…) enters, who from in fact, together with Dave Rotten, both formed Holycide back in 2004, with which the circle is closed, and everything stays at home!! This will also mean a new stage in the band, since Dani was the main composer, and now this task will be divided between the two guitarists Miguel Bárez and Salva Esteban, as well as Vicente J. Payá, who will contribute new ideas for the composition of the 3rd album that will take place during the first half of 2023

 Vocalist John Walker, bassist Ian Buchanan, and drummer Carl Stokes formed Cancer in Ironbridge, Shropshire, in 1988  and broke up twice (in 1996 and 2006). The band reformed once again in 2013.

They were also planning to make a number of festival appearances, where they would only play songs from their first three albums.

On 22 September 2015, Cancer revealed that they have been working on new material. In July 2018, they signed to Peaceville Records and would release their new album, tentatively titled Shadow Gripped, late in the year. In August 2018, Shadow Gripped was confirmed as the title of the band's next album, which was released on 2 November 2018.

Misery Index began as a studio project in 2001, when vocalist and bassist Jason Netherton (ex-DYING FETUS) joined together with guitarist / vocalist Mike Harrison and drummer Kevin Talley (ex-DYING FETUS) to record their debut EP “Overthrow”. This five-song death/grind attack received considerable praise in underground circles, shifting Misery Index into a full time project with the addition of Sparky Voyles (ex-DYING FETUS) on guitar.

            In 2002, Mike Harrison and Kevin Talley left the band to focus on other projects and the latter was replaced by Matt Byers, who took up drum duties for their first US tour that summer in support of KATAKLYSM. In 2003, Misery Index released their first full-length “Retaliate”, to exceptional reviews and numerous tours in Europe and North America supporting bands such as DYING FETUS, AMON AMARTH, DEICIDE, and NILE. In 2004 a video for “The Great Depression” was released, complimenting their first live DVD, which featured a full set recorded in Athens, Greece. Later in 2004, Adam Jarvis (also currently of PIG DESTROYER and SCOUR) took over on drums, just in time for Misery Index to hit such European festivals as Wacken Open Air, Brutal Assault, and Party.San Open Air, followed with more touring alongside bands such as BEHEMOTH, NAPALM DEATH, SUFFOCATION, ROTTEN SOUND, and MAGRUDERGRIND. In 2005, guitarist and vocalist Mark Kloeppel (ex-CAST THE STONE) joined Jason, Adam and Sparky, solidifying the line-up for the next five years.   [biography]

 Formaline (ex-Formalin and ex-Gutslasher) is a Russian death metal band since 2005. Inspired by Carcass, Cannibal Corpse, SFU, etc with a touch of hardcore groove. Lyrics of the band are similar to horror series scenarios like "Tales From The Crypt", "Creepshow" - each song is a story of violent murder and introduction to the darkest corners of one's mind, possessed by an explainable primal fear.

 

 



 

 

 

 

 


 

 Serrando Codos were formed in Catalonia (Spain) in 2001, they released in that same year their first demo ''Desmembraciones''. 

The band calls their style "Horror Noise from Hell".
