Danish death-metal act Usipian was formed in 2000.
After having released a self financed MCD ("The Human Spirit Massacre") and a promo CD-R ("Promo 2003") Usipian got signed to Swedish Metal Fortress Entertainment (MFE).
First Usipian release on MFE was a limited 7-inch EP entitled "Clouded Restrainment", followed up by the debut album "Dead Corner of the Eye", featuring cover artwork by respected artist Dan Seagrave (Morbid Angel, Suffocation, Gorguts, Malevolent Creation, Entombed, Dismember).
"Dead Corner of the Eye" has so far received rave reviews worldwide. For instance 5/5 in Slavestate Magazine (Sweden), 9/10 in Extreem Music (Spain), 8,5/10 in Imhotep Magazine (Norway) and statements such as "All in all a very solid and convincing longplayer which should appeal to all high quality Death Metal heads out there. This one is again Danish dynamite!" (Voices From The Darkside - Germany) and "Usipian is heavy as only death metal can be. Satan should be proud!" (Metallian - Canada).
Through the years Usipian has played many live shows with bands such as Vader, Macabre, Aura Noir, Exmortem, Godhate (ex-Throneaeon) and Iniquity.
UPDATE: Usipian has been defunct since December 2006. Post-mortemly 3 tracks will be released as a MCD at one point or another. The tracks are "In Skinless Form", "Flag of Our Fathers" and "Second To Nothing". The recording took place at Sweet Silence Studio with Flemming Rasmussen in September 2006 and was meant to be a pre-recording for the follow up to "Dead Corner of the Eye".
