Perpetual Demise was a death metal band from the Netherlands, formed in 1989. Heres four songs I would describe as brutal Thrash with rough vocals that overall remind me of proto black metal. Interesting to see the Thrashy roots of this band as they would later evolve into sounding more groovy and progressive death-doom by their debut release "Artic" in 1996.

"Perpetual Demise was formed in 1989 like almost any other band did: a couple of friends who wanted to play the best songs of their favorite bands. In the early nineties the band recorded a couple of demotapes with their own songs: "Massacre to be" in 1992, and "When fear becomes..." in 1994. The title track of the first demo appeared on the 'Against all gods' CD sampler released by Displeased Records.

Thanks to these demo's the band got the opportunity to perform with well known bands like Gorefest and The Gathering to name but a few. One of the highlights in the career of Perpetual Demise was their performance on the campsite of the famous Pinkpop festival in May 1994."
