Persecution

About Me

Well, we’re basically 4 guys about to graduate that love to play music, and happened to play different instruments. We started out just trying to learn our instruments, our initial plan was to start a nirvana cover band!! We all eventually developed a joint interest in metal, and decided to head in the death metal direction. In the past year and a half we’ve come to be known for our ridiculous profane song titles, our “Heavy as balls” breakdowns, and our laid back, metallica-esque, on stage attitude. We are almost done with our EP, Facial Deconstructive Surgery, and are happily awaiting touring it through out the summer. It contains tons of head splitting riffs and baby-crushing breakdowns that reflect our Black Dahlia Murder, Suffocation, and All Shall Perish Influences. Our Favorite past time after shows would easily have to be eating. We consume mass amounts of food in one sitting, so a majority of our earnings go towards the junk food that fuels the unstoppable killing machine that is Persecution!!!
