MURDER SYNDICATE

About Me


“ With a face melting sound and catchy-as-fuck riffs, Murder Syndicate get the old school Death Metal secretions flowing like too few bands these days. A jolly old, flesh ripping, neck snapping good time!”
Frank Harthoorn - GOREFEST
“Raw, old-school death metal spiced up with bloody shreds of grind - Murder Syndicate know how to kill! I prefer my dish of metal served with brutal and organic riffs and prefer Murder Syndicate over any clean produced, soulless 'modern' death core band any day! This is the new 'old' - Have a slice!”
Angela Gossow - ARCH ENEMY
“Now this is how I like my death metal – no jazz, no math, no core, just raw old-school power with a devastating groove! The production on “Rage and Retribution” is massive, and Wilbert’s vocals sound like he’s regurgitating his guts all over the listener, while Susan plays guitar with more balls than many of her male counterparts. Holland has always spawned some outstanding death metal bands, and Murder Syndicate is definitely one of them!”
Martin Schirenc - PUNGENT STENCH
Professional sounding Death Metal from the south of The Netherlands. "Rage and Retribution" is 40 mins of intense slaughtering which will satisfy your needs! A must for everyone who loves Old-School Death Metal!
Harold Gielen - LEGION OF THE DAMNED
____________________________________________________________ _
MURDER SYNDICATE is a death metal band from the Netherlands and was formed by guitarist Susan and vocalist Wilbert (both former members of Desensitised) in March 2008.
Although the band is relatively new, the band members are definitely no rookies!
All of them have over 10 years of experience in the metal scene and have played together with bands such as Arch Enemy, Suffocation, Master, Pungent Stench, Kreator, Vader, Impaled Nazarene and more established acts. Some members have played at renowned festivals such as Party San and Obscene Extreme.
In September 2008 MURDER SYNDICATE recorded their first full length CD "Rage and Retribution" at the Toneshed Studio in Holland. The CD contains 11 bone-crushing, old-school , groovy death metal tracks with a very modern and tight sound.
At the moment the band is looking for a label to release this CD.
