After a couple of line-up changes and their first demo '93 "The Cold Waste", the founded Martin Von Fah-Q (a.k.a. Chivo) (throat) joined forces with Shuvaka (chainsaws) and recorded the "Black Baptism of October" demo at the beginning of 1994. At the end of '94 theband was joined by Blackness the Dark One (warhead onslaught), and the Evil Onit (death axe), and the band wentinto a Mexico City studio to record their debut, "Hellbent on Slaughter", withproduction duties being handled by Daniel Corchado (of Cenotaph/The Chasm fame). This recording was released as a split with Equitant (solo project of Absu guitarist) on Hellfire records. By Febuary of the unholy year of nineteen hundred and ninety six six six, the band started the recording of their first full length, "Infierno Eterno", in The Chasm's Metal Command Studios, again in the unholy Tenochtitlan: Mexico City. This recording also featured Daniel Corchado at the production reigns. Obeisance came, saw, recorded, mixed and conquered in less than 24 hours. The band then took an unscheduled hiatus due to Martin's commitment to the Texas State Penal System. The spirit of the band is infinitely diabolic and this setback did not break the unholy will of the band. In 2 days in late December '01 and early January '02 these metal warriors recorded "Lucifer Master"; once again with Daniel Corchado at the production helm in the newly formed Lux Inframundis Studio in Chicago, Ill. This release introduces Kalvator (chainsaws and bass butchery) into the Obeisance horde . Touring support for this release ensued for the next few years. Metal maniacs were slaughtered in Milwaukee, Chicago, and a tour of Mexico as well. In addition, numerous supporting gigs were played in Juarez, Mexico and Hell Paso. Due to members relocating, Martin was in search of a new lineup. In the spring of '02 metal brother Evil Onit was brought back into the Obeisance fold to play chainsaws. In the fall of 2004, Martin recruited Megiddo the Blood Glutton on war kegs. At this point, Martin also took over the bass duties. Between gigs, new songs were written and in February 2005, the band entered Marching Plague Studios in Hell Paso and recorded demo tracks for the upcoming "Unholy, Unwholesomeand Evil". October '05 brought another line up change, due to personal differences Megiddo Blood Glutton is no longer performing drum duties. But by months end on October 31st D. Krazy was recruited for battery onslaught.
Obeisance got their name from a Bathory track titled "Nocturnal Obeisance", which happens to be the intro track for Bathory's self titled debut, The Return... and Under the Sign of the Black Mark albums.
Obeisance means to bow before.
