BiografieThe process of incineration began in September of 2000, in New York City, when thrash metal veteran Mem V. Stein formed Sun Descends. Founded on the principals of a deep-rooted passion for thrash metal, Mem’s vision remained constant throughout all the ups and downs in the years to come. SD went through numerous line-up changes and several releases since they first surfaced on the international metal environment in 2001. That year, High Vaultage Records from Germany released the band’s first EP, “Tide in the Affairs of Men”; soon after Mem had played the Wacken open-air festival for a one-off Exumer reunion show.

However, things quieted down following the release and SD went into a hiatus.
Then in January 2004, Mem met his musical counterpart, guitarist Sam Awry. The two recruited bassist, Jillian Ann La Boy shortly after. This formation has been the core of SD’s musical base ever since.

The first output of this SD incarnation became the self-released “Kanun-Law” EP, in the summer of 2004. Receiving much more attention from the international press than it’s predecessor, the EP along with SD’s first recording was re-released in early 2005. Marquee Records from Brazil and Khaosmaster Productions from Puerto Rico released and distributed the professionally packaged release to a thrash hungry audience all over the globe in the metal underground.

In July 2005, SD braced them selves for a long-overdue full-length cd and entered Don Fury’s Cyclone Sound Studio in Coney Island, NY, where the band and Don had previously worked on their 2nd EP.

The result of this session became the 10 track strong “Incinerating the Meek.” Distributed worldwide via Twilight Distribution from Germany, the recording features a re-make of Exumer’s “Fallen Saint”. The recording also showcases guest appearances from Craig Horval of Nunslaughter/Crucified Mortals and His Eminence the Wicked of Terror of the Trees. Also included on “I.T.M.” as a bonus, is the band’s first video clip for the song “Intercepting Daggers”. Shot in the Kung Fu temple in NYC where Mem teaches and studies martial arts, the video features a high-octane performance of the band and stunning authentic Kung Fu combat footage.

After its release, “Incinerating the Meek” will be promoted by touring the east coast of north America, followed by a European tour in summer 2006.

This SD invasion will introduce drummer Chris Torre a highly talented and competent player who will help incinerate the metal forces.
