In the Woods… Set to Debut in Colombia, Celebrating Progressive Metal

In the Woods…, a Norwegian avant-garde progressive black metal band, was formed in 1992 in Kristiansand.

‘Acts of God’: Immolation’s Latest Contribution to the Death Metal Sphere

Formed from the remnants of Rigor Mortis in 1988, Immolation became a significant force in the North American death metal scene. Originally, Rigor Mortis, conceived in May 1986, consisted of Andrew Sakowicz on bass guitar and vocals, Dave Wilkinson on drums, and Robert Vigna on guitar. After recording the ‘Decomposed’ and ‘Warriors of Doom’ demos, Sakowicz left in early 1988 and was replaced by Ross Dolan. Coinciding with this change, the band rebranded itself as Immolation. The amalgamation of Dolan’s profound bass and guttural vocals, Vigna’s innovative guitar techniques, and Wilkinson’s vigorous drumming defined Immolation’s distinctive sound.
