Layment

Loud & Fast - estd. 1996

About Me

Layment was founded as "Valorenen", situated in the Ruhr, the former industrial and mining centre of Germany. Originally founded in 1996 Layment made it through several line-up changes and even split up in 2001. One year later axeman Tobe thought: "No ass-kicking band without reunion!" But there was no reunion, there was a totally new, young and fresh band evolving, having nothing in common but the name; a new band, a better band, this band!!!
In late summer 2006, Layment signed to Yonah Records / Alive and get promoted by CMM. The debut-album "Declaration" has been released on March 30th 2007.
This fall Layment will be coming to your area boarding and co-headlining the "Traces of Vale"-Tour with Orden Ogan, presenting our upcoming album "Traces" (to be released fall 2008)

We've contributed two songs from "Declaration" to the "New Breed of German Metal"-Sampler. Check it out here:
