Band:

Deranged

BiografieDeranged, one of the few swedish death metal bands that came out during the early nineties that have always done their own kind of no remorse showing, intense and truely brutal death metal. No matter what other bands around was and is doing, you can be sure that Deranged will always deliver the most brutal and violent death metal man can create!

Deranged has been around since ´91 and quickly after the formation of the band, they recorded and released their one only official demo tape, the 4 songs "…the confessions of a necrophile" which gave them a 7" single deal with the japanese label Obliteration rec. The name of the now sold out 7" single was "…the confessions continues" which certainly gave the band a name in the worldwide death metal underground scene where the band is mostly seen. Deranged was now busy writing new material for their first mini CD "Architects of perversions" which was released by Repulse rec. from Spain, and basically just once again helped the band to keep spreading the name all around the world as being one of the most brutal acts the scene had to offer. The year is now 1994 and exactly one year after the recording sessions of their first 7" single they hooked up with the german label M.M.I. rec. which released their follow up to the "Architects…" disc, the 2 songs 7" single "Upon the medical slab" which once again proved that Deranged was a band that would never sell out to the mainstream. Deranged was now supposed to do their second mini CD, the 4 songs "Sculpture of the dead" which was said to be released on Invasion rec. from Germany. Unfortunately due to circumstances beyond the bands acts that never happened and it didn’t see the light of day ‘til oct. ´95, then as a bonus disc to the first 2000 copies of the bands first full length disc "Rated-X" (Repulse rec.). "Rated-X" received surprisingly good response and Rikard Wermén (drums) once said in an interview; "I never thought that Rated-X would receive such an great response as it did, having in mind all black metal and melodic stuff going on today. Rated-X isn’t especially "melodic" nor "evil". Ha, ha, ha…". The band now shot their first video clip that was aired numerous times on MTV / Into the pit, Z-TV, Viva TV…you name it!!! The year is now 1997 and the band once again enters the studio after some intense touring all over Europe along with a few changes in the line up to record their highly requested second full length CD "High on blood" which received even better response then "Rated-X". Deranged did around 45-50 shows all around Europe ´98 and they will for sure break that this year along with the release of their third full length disc "III" which is said to be released oct. ´99. It’s said to be the most brutal, sickest, extreme and intense death metal album ever released. Deranged also most recently signed a deal with Listenable rec. so now they’re really ready to spread the violent reeking death metal so many people once again urge for.

Deranged has now in ´99 received an almost "cult" alike status among the worldwide death metal scene as being one of the most, if not the most brutal and intense death metal bands man has ever experienced. The kind of band that might destroy themselves but they’ll never sell out!!!"
