THE STORY OF HOW DEATHCAGE CAME TO BE !!!
The idea for Deathcage came about when Danny and Kas re-met (after 9 years) at an Obituary show at the Manning Bar in May '07. In his youth, Danny would sling imported Japanese punk records on street corners around Sydney. Kas was a regular customer.
Around the same time (May '07) Kas spotted a tall Swedish tourist in a Discharge shirt at a Masstrauma show in Canberra. This was Nick Cage who was missing his Swedish punk band, Saboteur. He was more than keen to play hardcore in Australia.
In the meantime, Kas' brother, a glam rock head-banger called Romeo Bullet, was on a break from his hard rock band, Maniac (for which Kathrash drummed), for which he played guitar and sang. Romeo thought it would be fun to start thumping the bass to a bit of hardcore punk. The 4 started writing songs and jamming regularly in about June '07.
After having a bunch of songs written, but no singer/lyrics, Deathcage decided that Nick Cage would sing in Swedish (he can't speak a word of English). He has a sick voice, even sicker with an ancient viking language.
However, an old friend of Danny's, who had already expressed an interest in the band, SpiderXDeath, was found hobbling out of the ruins of his crust/speed-thrash band (Smash'N'Grab) in a daze. Having previously played in Sewer Cider and Farce with Danny, and being a long term GISM and Deathside addict, and a general sick cunt, he immediately grabed the mike and howled like a wolf in heat, and he hasn't stopped.
