Out of the Ashes of the Berlin Underground Band Mortal Viruz,
Spawn was formed by Matt (vox), Olli (guitars), No. (drums)
and Chrille (bass) in 1998.
A year later the demo- CD "Headhunter" was released.
Early 2000, Hardy (Ex-Nuclear Tribunal) joined the band as
guitar player and Chrille (bass) left Spawn in August 2001.
He was replaced by Fux and the Promo- CD Veritas was
released. Finally the last member of the present Line-Up
bass player Alf joined Spawn in 2001.
The recording of the debut album "Systems Full Of Victims",
which was released by Bruchstein records, began immediately
and the next step towards Spawns concrete idea of Death Metal
was taken.
The album was presented live at the "Fuck The Commerce IV"
Open Air concert in Neiden, Germany, where Spawn gained lots
of attention for their musical direction: Deep growls, a wall of
guitars and an incredible battery were kind of an astonishing
Death Metal assault.
This lead directly to the Blasphemy And Violence Tour with
Krisiun and Damnation in Germany 2001, where Spawn improved
their Show and took it to the level it has nowadays.
After several single Shows Spawn recorded the Split-Ep
Hybrid Manifestation with Berlins Harmony Dies in February
2002, which was another musical progression for the band.
In April 2002 Spawn toured again for four weeks in Europe,
celebrating The Art Of Sickness together with Cryptopsy,
Haemorrhage and Profanity; another big success for Spawn.
Alf split with the band in oct 2003. The next replacement
is not worth to mentioned it here. But then, SPAWN found
the right girl! Janice claimed the bass position. Finally a next
solid line-up was build.
Spawn recorded their devestating output Human Toxin
which was released in dec. 2004. Human Toxin is another
intense Death Metal statement of Spawn without any compromises
and you should expect nothing but a massive slap in your face
again! Lots of good reviews declared that SPAWN did it well.
After some deep grinding club gigs, Spawn entered the stage
of With Full Force Festival in summer 05. After supporting
Arch Enemy/Trivium in Berlin the band rejected itself writing
the final chapters for next output. After a refreshing break and
splitting up with Hardy the band raised the new line up completed
with Dirk on the second guitar.
In 2008 SPAWN entered again the DailyHeroRecord Halls for
their next upcoming CD "Reincarnated" which contains 8 Tracks
like " Seed of the Doom", "Nothing than to Kill" or "Under the
Blackest Sky"
In early 2009 Marc ( ex-KADATH ) overtook the deep tunes. After some intense rehearsals SPAWN is prepared again to spread out the vicious intense death metal....
We welcome you,brother!
