SacriFist (New Album out now!)

About Me

SacriFist is a five-piece band from Johannesburg in South Africa, who have been active in the metal scene for over 15 years, creating their own brand of Melodic Death Metal. Over the years the band has seen lineup changes with some members leaving to follow their own paths and others returning with new ideas and skills, but the present line up of Sammy, Byron, Dwayne, Shaun and Michael has taken the band to new creative levels.
With 3 full albums in their discography they are planning to release their 4th towards the middle of 2007, which promises to be the best SacriFist album so far!
Their powerful melodic death metal has kept their original fans loyal for many years and is constantly gathering an increasing number of new fans. Their songs online have had over a thousand downloads.
They are self distributed, and their album "The Well of Sacrifice" and newly released "Surrealist Plague" can be bought online at SUBTERANIA
