Hate.Malice.Revenge
|
Hailing from Oakland California, ALL
SHALL PERISH blasted on to the bay area scene in 2002 playing
every kind of show imaginable. They quickly found themselves embraced
by every facet of the insanely diverse bay area music scene from emo
to tech death. After recording their own self titled 3 song demo,
a Japanese label called Amputated Vein Records decided to release
the first ALL SHALL PERISH full length Hate.Malice.Revenge
(released Aug 19th, 2003). These 8 tracks proved to become an underground
favorite over the next year as ALL SHALL PERISH slammed the stage
along side acts such as BLEEDING THROUGH, DYING FETUS, BRUJERIA, AS
I LAY DYING, SIX FEET UNDER, HATE ETERNAL, DIECAST, BETWEEN THE BURIED
AND ME, MORTICIAN, UNDYING and many more; late 04 also included a
tour with Metal Blades VEHEMENCE and Prosthetic Records
CREMATORIUM. ALL SHALL PERISH never got tied down to death metal or
metalcore, they simply have become metal that breaks down genres and
gets EVERYONE moving.
"Hate.Malice.Revenge"
was 2 years in the making as a few bay area bands were gutted for
members to make this album. 5 completely different minded people formed
in ALL SHALL PERISH with musical tastes all over the board which made
for lots of arguments, holes in the walls and general rockstarery;
however a love of metal and hardcore along with a general distaste
for so much crap coming out pushed ALL SHALL PERISH into a brotherhood
and into the studio to produce what would become "Hate.Malice.Revenge".
The
album itself is metal and hardcore influenced but unlike so many bands
today the metal aspect is not solely confined to the sounds of Sweden,
greats such as DYING FETUS, CANNIBAL CORPSE and INTERNAL BLEEDING
are responsible for much of the bands death metal roots. However,
ALL SHALL PERISH also blends into the mix sounds from DIMMU BORGIR
to ALL OUT WAR. "Hate.Malice.Revenge" is a hybridization
of the heavy fucking music we love and as a band ALL SHALL PERISH
continues to destroy the stage while bringing together the various
scenes of heavy music to head bang, spin kick, circle pit, two step,
you name it...you will find them at an ALL SHALL PERISH show.
In
December of 2004 ALL SHALL PERISH signed a world wide deal with Nuclear
Blast records. Nuclear Blast will be re releasing Hate.Malice.Revenge
in early 05 and ALL SHALL PERISH will spend the remainder of
'05 touring and writing their second full length for a early '06 release.

for comment ALL SHALL PERISH said:
"We
are beyond honoured to be part of the Nuclear Family. The people of
this label are some of the greatest we have ever met in the business
and this label has had a legacy of music that is untouchable. To be
along side the greats such as DEATH, DIMMU BORGIR, IMMORTAL, IN FLAMES,
MALEVOLENT CREATION, MESHUGGAH, HYPOCRISY, SOILWORK...Just to name
a few!!!...is a dream come true for us. Now with Nuclear signing bands
such as AGNOSTIC FRONT and MISERY INDEX, I think it's obvious why
Nuclear Blast is No.1 in extreme music."
