Fonde en aout 1997, appele d'abord BRYMSTONE puis rapidement BIG BROWN BAG, les premieres compositions du quintet (forme ces temps la de deux guitaristes -Flo & Ju-, un bassiste -Alex-, un chanteur -Foux- et un batteur -Andreas-) etaient dans un style punk hardcore avec des influences allant des Vandals ou Union 13, d'autres comme Downset ou Snot (par exemple).Vers la fin de 1999, le groupe se separa de leur second guitariste Ju ; le quintet devint un quatuor desormais nomme ILLTEMPER.
Celui-ci donna de nombreuses nouvelles representations de juin 99 a juin 00 en compagnie de groupes tels que Skarlett, Colorblind, Slim, Opposite Prompt Side, Space Sugar, Stens etc...
Puis en automne 00, evoluant toujours dans un style fusion hardcore, le groupe "engagea" Johan aux platines mais celui-ci quitta Illtemper en rejoignant El'Nath vers fevrier 01.ILLTEMPER redevint un quatuor avec la meme formation : Foux au chant, Flo a la guitare, Alex a la basse et Andreas a la batterie.
Le groupe evolue de jour en jour ; ses influences sont depuis Noise Hardcore (tels que des groupes comme : Converge, Coalesce, Botch, les premiers Dillinger Escape Plan, les premiers Cave In, Jesuit, Rorschach, Deadguy et plein d'autres).
Malheureusement Illtemper (ainsi que Big Brown Bag) n'a eu jamais l'occasion et le privilege de s'enregistrer en studio (entre ete 1997 et fin 2003 !!) pour cause de moyens financiers et techniques, supprimant ainsi presque 40 compos , perdues dans la memoire de certains !!!Cest pour cela qu'en janvier 2004, apres une quarantaine de compos, Illtemper trouva les moyens et la motivation de concretiser leur vieux projet (devenu a l'usure un vieux reve !!) en enregistrant leur premier album 13 titres Hoax Naevus chez leurs amis Hole (Eyeless) & Mat (Sanity Sight) au studio Trendkill.Debut juillet 04, le groupe se separe d'Alex (bassiste) et le remplace par Laurent (ex-Shatter, Imprint, Surge).
L'album intitule Hoax Naevus sortit en fevrier 2005 sur le label Prototype Records. Il est compose de 8 morceaux plus 3 pistes cachees.
Ainsi Illtemper, apres quelques concerts dont un avec Pelican, songe enregistrer leurs nouveaux morceaux en studio dans le courant 2006.C'est pourquoi Florent Commeinhes et Franck Fisteberg enregistrerent leurs 9 nouveaux morceaux @ Rock Studios en fevrier 06, car Laurent a du quitter le groupe precipitement pour partir habiter en Allemagne.Un des 9 morceaux, Slave of Structure, apparait sur la compilation CD limite et numerote a la main a 200 ex., Underground Metal Comp. Vol.1, sur le label americain AcidVictim Records sortie en aout 06 (en compagnie de Stuntman, Sewn Shut etc...).Un autre titre apparaitra, exclusivement, sur la compilation CD, Everywhere Is Loud !, sur le label allemand Evil Killing Records en 2007.
Une reprise du titre Black Sabbath (par le meme groupe) sera exclusivement sur The Black Sabbath Collateral Damage Split Tribute 3" CD-R, limite et numerote a la main a 100 ex., en compagnie de Stuntman et Denizen, sur Prototype Records, debut 2007.
Et enfin, un split 4 groupes (15 minutes/groupe, correspondant a 4 titres exclusifs pour Illtemper) avec The Art Of Keeping Silent, Boys First Time et Dorian Gray est prevu pour 2007.Illtemper espere trouver un label capable de les aider a sortir un vinyl 7" (avec leurs 2 nouveaux et meilleurs titres dessus) en co-prod, par exemple, pour 2007, voire 2008 s'il le faut !!!Formed in august 1997, named first BRYMSTONE then quickly BIG BROWN BAG, the first compositions of the quintet (original members: 2 guitarists -Flo & Ju-, a bassist -Alex-, a singer -Foux- and a drummer -Andreas-) was in a punk hardcore vein with influences like Vandals or Union 13, or others like Downset or Snot (for example).At the end of 1999, the second guitarist Ju left the band ; it's now a quartet called ILLTEMPER.
This one made a lot of new shows from june 99 to june 00 with bands like Skarlett, Colorblind, Slim, Opposite Prompt Side, Space Sugar, Stens etc...
Then in autumn 00, still evolving in a hardcore fusion style, Illtemper took Johan at the turntables but this one left them for the band El'Nath in february 01.ILLTEMPER "re-became" a quartet with the same members : Foux on vocals, Flo at the guitar, Alex at the bass and Andreas at the drums.
The band is still growing and evolving ; its influences are since Noise Hardcore (like these one : Converge, Coalesce, Botch, the firsts Dillinger Escape Plan, the firsts Cave In, Jesuit, Rorschach, Deadguy and many others).
Unfortunately Illtemper (Big Brown Bag also) never had the chance to record their 40 songs between summer 97 and end of 03 !!!That's why in january 2004, after these 40 songs, Illtemper found the motivation to concrete their old project by recording their first album 13 tracks Hoax Naevus at their friends' Hole (Eyeless) & Mat (Sanity Sight) Trendkill Studio.At the beginning of july 04, Alex (bass) left the band and he's immediately replaced by Laurent (ex-Shatter, One More Season, Imprint, Surge...).
The album is called Hoax Naevus and is out since february 2005 on Prototype Records. 8 songs plus 3 hidden tracks.
Then Illtemper, after fiew gigs (one with Pelican), have been recorded their 9 new songs at Rock Studios by Florent Commeinhes and Franck Fisteberg in february 06, because Laurent had to leave the band in order to live in Germany.One of these 9 new songs is called Slave of Structure and appear on the limited and hand-numbered to 200 copies AcidVictim Records Comp. (US),Underground Metal Comp. Vol.1, out on Aug.06 (w/ Stuntman, Sewn Shut etc...).Another track will appear on 2007 on the Everywhere Is Loud CD Comp., on the German label Evil Killing Records.
A Black sabbath cover (called the same) will be on The Black Sabbath Collateral Damage Split Tribute 3" CD-R w/ Stuntman and Denizen, limited and hand-numbered to 100 copies on Prototype Records in 2007.
And finally, a 4 way band split (15 minutes per band) w/ The Art Of Keeping Silent, Boys First Time and Dorian Gray will appear on 2007.But actually, the band is looking for labels that could be interested by releasing us a vinyl 7" with their 2 new (and best ever done) songs on it, even for a co-release for 2007 or 2008 !!!Shop on line for ordering Illtemper stuffs Prototype Records
