DEIFECATION
Deifecation
OLD SCHOOL DEATH METAL

livepic by René Damkot - www.damkot.com

Deifecation is an old-school death metal band from Enschede, The Netherlands. It all began as a jam-project in de summer of 1998, but in a few months time this project, consisting of four members (Willem vocals, Gijs drums, Liwu bass and Iwan guitar), evolved into an actual band called Deifecation.

After a number of local performances the band achieved its first success by winning the preliminary round of the Grote Prijs van Drienerlo. At this stage the bands live performances had already made quite an impression on the local metal heads and were invited to play at the Flatrock99 festival. A successful gig resulted in immediate confirmation for Flatrock2000. Soon after came appearances in Hengelo (Dolly Pop Festival & Cerberus) and Enschede (Bevrijdingsfestival & Bata444-festival). The so-called Twente Assault Tour - with punk-metal-chaos band LikmnReet - reached its climax with both bands Pro-Demo achievements in Atak (Enschede).

As a logical result of the bands progression came the need for a second guitar player, and Jan was added to the line-up. At the opening night of the Enschedese Head Bangers Organisatie (EHBO) the band appeared on stage as a formation of 5 for the first time; a change that got a warm reception from the familiar crowd. The bands real baptism of fire, however, was still to come. Playing at the Metalfest VII in Zutphen, for the first time without the support of their extensive home crowd, they did well.

Unfortunately, Gijs en Liwu both decided to leave the Netherlands in the summer of 2000 and new musicians had to be found to replace them. Marco (bass) and Stuif (drums) agreed to fill the empty slots, which gave the band renewed vigour to start working on material for their planned demo. In March 2001 they recorded the Dystopian Anthropotagonism-demo at Ground Zero studios in Zutphen. Soon after recording was completed Marco left the band, which allowed him to focus more his other band Extreem Eczeem. Luckily, Marijn gladly agreed to take over his duties on bass and provide a smooth transition to the present line-up. The Dystopian Anthropotagonism-demo was released in December 2001.

Supporting the release of this demo the band focused on performing live: not keeping to susceptible gig-worthy patches of native soil, but boldly crossing the borders into Germany and Belgium to show what they are capable of as a live band.

Their productivity didn't cease however: 11 all-new songs were ready to be recorded at the end of 2003. Soon after recording the band teamed up with Germany-based Unstoppable Media to release their first full-length album named "Reciprocreation".

Soon after, Stuif decided to call it a day after four years of intense band activities. Floris stepped in to fill the gap and after just a few weeks time he played a hell of a gig at the Stage Blast Brutal Festival. After a year of showing off his capabilities it was time to record new material and “Cathartic Octogenaricide” was born.

Pressestimmen zur CD "Reciprocreation"
"Alles in allem haben Deifecation eine tolle, runde Scheibe komponiert, die einfach Spass macht und auch nach mehrmaligem Hören nicht langweilig wird. Reciprocreation schließt nahtlos an das Demo Dystopian Anthropotagonism an, was für mich bedeutet, dass sie ihren bärenstarken Tonträgereinstand mit dem ersten Album ausbauen konnten!"

Nee, Leute echt, was dermaßen Dämliches habe ich selten gesehen. Dazu passend bewegen sich die Texte auf ähnlichem Niveau. Na ja, meine Aufmerksamkeit haben sie ja schon mal damit erreicht. Trotzdem das nächste Mal bitte ne andere Masche, damit man nicht schon von vorneherein mit einer negativen Haltung an die CD herangeht."

Reciprocreation
Das Cover der aktuellen CD
 "Reciprocreation" (2004)
"Geschmacklos. Das Comic-Cover mit der nackten Frau, der gerade ein schwerer Stiefel die Vagina zermatscht, dieses Artwork ist schlichter Müll, ohne Aussage und Sinnzweck. Mit diesem Bild stecken sich die Holländer damit sogleich in die Schublade einer bestimmten Sorte von Kerlen, die solche Sachen wohl nötig haben, weil sie im realen Leben keine Frau abgekommen."

"Waarschuwing: deze cd bevat kinderachtige teksten. Duh, alsof iemand na de aanblik van de onsmakelijke, respectloze cartoontekening op de hoes iets anders zou verwachten... Het Enschedese Deifecation heeft ongetwijfeld een hekel aan de mensheid."

"Really over the top and therefore you should take em with a grain of salt. As you can see on the cover they warn you about the childish content of the lyrics but its obvious these guys dont take it all that serious. The artwork shows that as well."

"The first thing that struck me is that Deifecation have once again chosen an album title that needs reading twice before one can pronounce it, even though this time around it's not sucha difficult to pronounce title as "Dystopian Anthropotagonism."

Pressestimmen zur aktuellen CD "Carthartic Octogenaricide"Cathartic Octogenaricide
"Die niederländischen Death Metaller DEIFECATION sind schon seit Jahren sowohl auf Platte als auch auf der Bühne Garanten für allerfeinste 'Alte-Schule Todesmetall' Unterhaltung (...) mit der Mini-CD "Cathartic Octogenaricide" haben die fünf Jungs aus Enschede ein wirklich brandheißes Eisen im Feuer! (...) Hier wir geknüppelt bis die Schwarte kracht, aber nicht ohne Sinn und Verstand, sondern auf höchsten Niveau und zudem erstaunlich eingängig, außerdem geben die total abgedrehten Songtitel, sowie das dummdreiste Intro von "Senile For Satan" viel vom bluttriefenden und tiefschwarzen Humor der Holländer preis. (...) Das ist fair, das ist geil, das gibt daumendicke 8 Punkte!!
