Old Style Death Metal
The "Possession" began in the early days of Death Metal and Thrash. Inspired by bands such as Celtic Frost, Mercyful Fate, Destruction, Voivod, Bathory, and Slayer, plus earlier metal bands like Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden, founding members Glyn Clark, Steve Jacobs, Chad Lottmann, and Bryan Cruz, in 1987, set out to forge a metal sound of their own.
In 1993, Diabolic Possession, with Glyn Clark (guitar), Eric Hahn (guitar), Chad Lottmann (vocals), Steve Jacobs (bass), and Brian Dyer (drums), released the "Ripped To Pieces" E.P. It was later released on CD by Ground Zero Entertainment. "Ripped To Pieces" consisted of the songs Ripped To Pieces, Reign Of Terror, Cranial Miasis, and From The Gates Of Hell. Diabolic Possession performed many shows around the country, including the Milwaukee Metal Fest VII in 1993 (and later again in 2003). With relentless promotion, and countless distribution deals, they formed a strong following. They were interviewed, reviewed, and written about in many magazines and fanzines around the world. They later recorded a full-length album "Return To The Grave". The album showed the musical growth of the band. "Return To The Grave" included the songs Sarcophagus, The Other One, Torn Off Fingernails, The Possession, Exhumed, The Second Coming Of Christ, and The Desolate One. Unfortunately, it was never released. The band broke up before recording was completed.
Then, in 2002, Diabolic Possesion reformed. The current line-up, Andy Jones (vocals), Glyn Clark (guitar), Steve Jacobs (bass), and Pete Hilario (drums), recorded the "Dark Seraphim" E.P. "Dark Seraphim" consists of the songs Sarcophagus, Fall Of The Rebel Angels, Torn Off Fingernails, and Order Of Deception. It will be released soon by Still Dead Production from Poland. The CD will also contain the entire "Ripped To Pieces" E.P. as a bonus! Diabolic Possession are back and they'll leave the listeners... ...Ripped To Pieces!
