DEADSPAWN

DEADSPAWN was founded 1998 as succeeding band to PURGATORY and BONEMACHINE by Guido Holstein and David Dörrhöfer. Since december 1998 DEADSPAWN performed a considerable number of concerts together with bands like:MORBID ANGEL, NOCTE OBDUCTA, GORGORTH, JESTER’S FUNERAL, AMON AMARTH, REVENANT, GOD DETHRONED, BLACKENED, VENERAL, DISEASE, KRISIUN, INTO DARKNESS, LEGACY, OCCULT.In 2000 DEADSPAWN decided to record another demo which was unleashed as „The Second Coming“ via LOGOTRON music and again their musical achievement gained respect throughout the underground and the band played their first festival gig in Abtsgmünd, destroying the SUMMER BREEZE 2000. Unfortunately, the band split up in 2001 due to line up problems. Still, Dave and Guido wanted to express themselves by playing thrash influenced Death Metal and therefore they started to reenact DEADSPAWN in the beginning of 2003. They were joined by Daniel, formerly playing bass in STEELHEAD and Philip, who is also the vocalist of BLOODDAWN. Together they recorded their third demo „Slaughter Cattle“ which gained even more positive response, as reviews done by the Metalglory mag (9,5/10) or Vampster mag can tell.
In 2005 DEADSPAWN was finally ready to record their debut album, entiteled „Eradication“. After nearly 3 months of recording „Eradication“ turned out to be a huge success, receiving 7/10 from the German mags Rock Hard and metal.de or 4 out of 5 by the Blooddawn Mag. Again the band did a lot of gigs and after a while, the german label MUSICAZ signed the band and rereleased „Eradication“ worldwide. Unfortunately, there were again line up problems and Daniel had to be replaced by Matthias from GODFORSAKEN. But after some months Matthias left the band as well and it took the band a while to find a suitable replacement. Finally that replacement was found in Tim from RANKOR in the end of 2006.
In summer ’07 Philip left the band due to health poblems and was replaced by Gaus, who also does the singing job at ANTICHRIST and TOTAL WAR.
Together with Tim and Gaus DEADSPAWN will be ready to do new gigs and will hopefully record their second album as soon as possible.
