  • AVULSED in Colombia!! ...and Hellfest, Way of Darkness, SWR...


          Yes, AVULSED is finally playing in Colombia, perhaps the country in the whole South America where the band has a stronger fan base. Thanx to Alex Okendo from the mighty MASACRE and also MORBID MACABRE, the band was selected to headline this year's edition on the Metal section of the ALTAVOZ Festival in Medellin on Sunday 16th of October together with bands like MORBID MACABRE, VITAM ET MORTEM and ETERNAL. This festival is a really huge one that always gathers not less than 10.000 metalheads. You can check videos from previous editions here:

          Also, the day before, on the 15th, AVULSED has been invited by Daniel from the legendary colombian act PURULENT, to headline the 10th anniversary of BOGOTA Deathfest alongside with SUPPURATION, VEHEMENTER, CARNAL BLASPHEMY, INBREEDING SICK, HOLY SHIT B.S.E. and ATHANASE GENOCIDE. Both shows are going to be something really brutal and memorable!!

          But a week before that, AVULSED is playing in one of Germany's best uprising festivals like it is WAY OF DARKNESS. Check poster here:

          And most probably this will be all regarding shows for this year, but in 2012, during the first months there will be a bunch of shows around Spain, still to be confirmed, in places like Granada, Murcia, Mallorca, Asturias, Cantabria… and then the strongest ones will follow!! First another performance at Portugal's 15th anniversary of SWR Festival (www. swr-fest.com) and later on, what's perhaps the biggest festival ever to have the pleasure of counting with AVULSED on its stages: HELLFEST!! (www.hellfest.fr)

          In the meantime, the band decided to cancel the release of their 20th anniversary CD "Fleshcube" mainly because there were several problems regarding the recording sessions and that delayed the whole project to the point that it was going to be impossible to release it for this year, so… who knows, perhaps for our 25th anniversary!!

          However, this cancellation was taken in a positive way, because this helped the band to concentrate in the songwriting of their upcoming album "Ritual Zombi" whose recordings are planned for spring/summer 2012. Although some labels have already shown interest on signing AVULSED, the band won't take any decision about it until more offers are being received and then will carefully check one by one in order not to commit another mistake like it was done with their previous album "Nullo (The Pleasure of Self-mutilation)" which suffered of total lack of care regarding distribution & promotion from Metal Age Prod. in Europe and Ibex Moon Rec. in the US. Luckily it was released in time by Xtreem Music, which saved this magnific album. But for the next full length, AVULSED is still looking for a suitable partner, so any interested record label, please get in touch with the band at info@avulsed.com

  • Actuación de AVULSED cancelada en el BURNING FEST

    Con tan sólo tres días de antelación y con los billetes de avión de Madrid-Coruña comprados hace dos meses, se ha comunicado a la banda que no será posible su actuación debido a problemas con los dueños de la sala Ola Green, quienes consideran que 6 bandas eran demasiadas y que había que recortar grupos. Muy a pesar del promotor, ha tenido que prescindir de la actuación de AVULSED, ya que no era lógico que la banda realizase un viaje tal para actuar tan sólo 15 min.

  • AVULSED's 20th anniversary is now!! And some other news...

          2011 is the year!! The year of the 20th anniversary of AVULSED, the most constant & veteran Death Metal band from Spain, formed back in August 1991, being the most active live band not only within Spain, but also around the world (4 Euro-tours, Russia, USA, Japan, Mexico, South & Central America...), always carrying the flag of the most genuine Death Metal. Having spawned 5 full length albums, 3 demos, 2 EP's and other releases making a total of 10 CD's & a DVD, the band feels stronger than ever and of course ready to prepare something special to commemorate these 20 years surviving trends & fashions and never wimping out!!

          During the 1st half of 2011, a total of 18 songs taken from all their albums, will be re-recorded for a CD entitled "Fleshcube". Instead of just doing a compilation with the original recordings (that would be too easy & cheap), the band decided to re-record all these songs with the current line-up, the current guitar sound (way heavier than before), their current drummer (who has empowered the playing of the songs) and in general, the usual modifications that each song is getting after being played for years and years. In resume, it'll be an album with only the best songs of the band. No fillers, just classics!! A special limited edition will be released, most probably a box containing a double CD, shirt and other goodies, limited to the first ones to come, but it's still undecided how it'll be.

          Needless to say that AVULSED will be presenting "Fleshcube" after its release, planned sometime after summer, playing all these killer songs, while still working on the composition of new tunes for their 6th full length album tentatively to be recorded in 2012 with the working title of "Ritual Zombi", a title written in Spanish, but perfectly understandable in English too, which not only in tribute to DEATH, of course, but also will serve to introduce the zombie element into AVULSED's lyrics to make them not just brutal, gore & macabre, but fucking horrifying as well.

          Also, 2011 means the first agreement ever made between AVULSED and a management. STIGIA Promotions & Management will handled, from now on, all negotiations regarding shows & tours for the band, so if anyone is interested in booking AVULSED on their city or festival, please, get in touch directly with: jordi@stigia.org

          A few shows for AVULSED are already confirmed for 2011. Two imminent shows, one in Zaragoza and other in Barcelona (4th Brutal Noise Fest.) and then other international festivals confirmed in USA (Maryland Deathfest), Denmark (KillTown Deathfest), Germany (Way of Darkness) plus Spanish Leyendas del Rock Festival. More shows will be confirmed during the next months, so check www.avulsed.com or www.myspace.com/avulsed for more info!!

          In late 2010, AVULSED recorded a cover of BLACK SABBATH’s song “Neon Knights” for an upcoming double CD in tribute to Ronnie James DIO, including some of the most relevant Spanish Metal bands. AVULSED is the only Death Metal band on this compilation and without any doubt this will be the heaviest and most brutal song on the whole tribute!

          Regarding merchandise, the band issued a new T-shirt motive called "Breaking Hymens", limited to 50 units of which some of them have already been sold at shows and a few are still left, so hurry up if you want to get one of this ultra-brutal design!! A few full coloured "Reanimations" shirts are still available as well plus other motives and also hoodies, etc. Check merchandise section to see full available catalogue.



          2001 Es el año! El año del XX Aniversario de AVULSED, la banda más veterana y constante del Death Metal nacional. Formada en 1991, es una de las bandas mas activas en directo dentro de la escena dethmetalera española, incluso fuera de nuestras fronteras (han tocado en 4 continentes: 4 Euro-tours, Rusia, USA, Japón, México, Sur y Centro América...), siempre portando la bandera del más genuino Death Metal. La banda, que cuentan con 5 álbums en su trayectoria, además de varias demos, EPs y un DVD (en total 10 CD's y un DVD), se encuentra más fuerte que nunca y por supuesto listos para preparar algo especial para conmemorar éstos 20 años sobreviviendo a modas y tendencias nunca reblandeciendo su sonido!!

          Durante la primera mitad de 2011 van a regrabar un total de 18 temas, seleccionados de todos sus discos, para lanzar un CD llamado “Fleshcube”. En vez de recopilar las grabaciones originales (éso sería demasiado fácil y barato), AVULSED han decidido regrabarlos con la formación actual, el sonido de guitarra actual (bastante más pesado que antes), el batería actual (quien ha potenciado los temas) y en general las habituales modificaciones que cada tema sufre tras haber sido tocados durante tantos años. En resumen, será un álbum que contendrá sólo los mejores temas de la banda. Sin relleno, sólo clásicos!! Saldrá una edición limitada, probablemente en forma de caja, que incluirá un doble CD, una camiseta exclusiva, adhesivos, fotos, etc… aunque ésto se decidirá más adelante.

          No hace falta decir que AVULSED estarán presentando“Fleshcube” tras su lanzamiento, programado para después de verano, tocando esas canciones asesinas, a la vez que siguen trabajando en los temas que irán incluidos en su 6º álbum de estudio, previsto para 2012 con el provisional título de “Ritual Zombi”, escrito en español, aunque perfectamente comprensible también en inglés. Este nombre no es sólo en tributo a DEATH, sino que también servirá para introducir el elemento zombi en sus letras, para hacerlas no solo brutales, gore o macabras, sino también terroríficas.

          También, 2011 significa el primer acuerdo jamás establecido entre AVULSED y un management, STIGIA Promotiona & Management llevará, desde ahora, todas las negociaciones de conciertos y tours para la banda, así que si alguien está interesado en contratar a AVULSED en su ciudad ofestival, por favor, contactad directamente con: jordi@stigia.org

          AVULSED también grabaron, a finales de 2010, la versión de BLACK SABBATH "Neon Nights" para el doble CD tributo a Ronnie James DIO, donde también aparecerán algunas de las mas grandes bandas del panorama del Metal nacional, siendo AVULSED la única banda de Death Metal, por lo que se espera que su tema sea el más brutal y pesado de todos!!

          Ya hay varios conciertos de AVULSED confirmados para 2011. Dos inminentes shows, uno en Zaragoza y otro en Barcelona (4º Brutal Noise Fest.) y luego varios festivales internacionales confirmados en USA (Maryland Deathfest), Dinamarca (KillTown Deathfest), Alemania (Way of Darkness) además del festival español Leyendas del Rock. Más conciertos se irán confirmando durante los próximos meses, permaneced atentos!!
