◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ BAND BIOGRAPHY & INFORMATION ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊ ◊
Trepan'Dead is a French-based grindcore/death metal act that was formed in 1998. The same year their first demo was put into circulation ("Trepan Is Not Dead") and the band hasn't looked back ever since. Though they may not be a common, household grindcore name, they certainly combine all of the crucial elements that any great grind band requires; speed, brutality, short & explosive tracks, infusion of death metal, punk, hardcore, and crust.
Since the first demo, the band has released a couple of split albums, one additional demo, and two full length releases; the latest being "Instinct" - which was many years in the making (their first full length "Obsessional Dysfunctions" came out in 2006, with only one split separating the LPs). The band is known for having an intense live show and since releasing their new album earlier this year, they've been touring like crazy with many well known bands, including Napalm Death.
