BAND NAME: Israel
GENRE: Blackened Death Metal
STATUS: Split-up
LOCATION: Switzerland
Formed in August-September, 1998.
Formed as Israel, but briefly went by the names Satanicide and Demonicide. ("Satanicide" was changed because they discovered a death metal band in the USA with the same name. The "Demonicide" was changed because they wanted a more meaningful band name.) They eventually went back to the name Israel.
The Bible verse in their logo (Deu.33:29) says,
Happy art thou, O Israel: who is like unto thee, O people saved by the LORD, the shield of thy help, and who is the sword of thy excellency! and thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.
Last-known contact:

Past:

Miguel - Unknown
Not sure if "past" or not:

Screams of Abaddon (compilation, 2000, Laceration Productions)
Format: CD
2) Israel - Song of Warriors 4:49
(artwork
not
available)
title unknown (EP, NOT SURE IF RELEASED)
Format unknown
"The songs will be recorded in CF Recording Studio / Lausanne. . . . We are not sure yet whether it will be entitled "Blinded by Satan" or "Scream Satan, Scream!", but in any case it won't be self-titled. As for the music, it is heavily influenced by the last few Mortification albums, since they are our guitarist`s favourite band. My vocals will be partly in the vein of Vomitorial Corpulence, i.e. with monstrous effects, and partly in the vein of my favourite band Crimson Thorn, i.e.without using effects. I will also use some black metal vocals in the vein of Horde or the second Zao album. Well, mix these elements and you will obtain Israel. We label ourselves as "technical grindcore / death metal with a touch of black metal".
1) Blinded by Satan
2) Ignorance (Psalm 2)
3) Make your Choice
4) Think before You Speak
5) Scream Satan, Scream! (instrumental)

1) Was Jehú a "current" or "past" member? 2) More info on the 5-song EP. 3) Any more relevant info at all. 4) Supposedly, Christophe and Miguel are the same people who played in the band "Extreme Salvation". Can anyone confirm if this is correct?
