Bio
DRAIN-LIFE ARE NOT OUT TO TAKE ANY PRISONERS This five piece are out for mass destruction and total demise. Drain-Life, hail from Rotterdam, Netherlands and were formed late 1996, early 1997. Around that time they started out as a band with influences from bands like Madball, Sick Of It All and the stream of Metalcore bands at that period of time like: All Out War, Merauder, Morning Again, Arkan...gel and many more. Lyricly everything comes off vocalist York's hands and ranges from personal issues, inner struggles and depression to world problematic issues, warfare, poverty and oppression... in the end, it all comes down to the truth in life, and the many struggles it brings, till it ultimately leads to death. Determined and ready for war... and a war it is; sharing many stages with Merauder, Sworn Enemy, 100 Demons, Kickback, Pro-Pain, Shattered Realm, Buldoze, Terror and many more Drain-Life never stopped writing material! and after a decade, a dozen Tapes, a Demo CD, a Mini CD later they signed to CFC Records and released 'A Prospect of Despair' again two years later they signed to Clenched Fist Records Belgium to release their hardest record to date 'Revelations of the Enslaved' Through the many years they grew from a Hardcore band with Metal influences into a 90's Vegan style Metalcore band with brutal Death / Thrash Metal riffs, Hardcore Beatdowns and Midd-Tempo triplets, phat mosh parts and Hardcore breakdowns. Nowadays you can even find influences from early Death Metal, Norwegian Black Metal from the 90's, the Bay Area Thrash from the 80's and the New Wave of American Metal sound of today. but they always maintained that Hardcore edge Through dedication and determination they survived it all and their explosive and professional live performances is proof of just that Being in the game for more than fifteen years, made them the hardest and longest running band in the Rotterdam area, and that reputation made them last countless shows everywhere, they are now maybe more motivated than ever to write better songs, greater records and doing even more shows.

DRAIN-LIFE ARE NOT OUT TO TAKE ANY PRISONERS
This five piece are out for mass destruction and total demise. Drain-Life, hail from Rotterdam, Netherlands and were formed late 1996, early 1997. Around that time they started out as a band with influences from bands like Madball, Sick Of It All and the stream of Metalcore bands at that period of time like: All Out War, Merauder, Morning Again, Arkangel and many more. Due to various struggles with bandmembers coming and going, it never really came of the ground. You could say it really started in 2004, when Drummer Joël joined remaining members York and Jon and made it a determined trio
ready for war...
and a war it is; sharing de stage with Merauder, Sworn Enemy, 100 Demons, Kickback, Shattered Realm, Buldoze, Terror and many more
but the struggles in the band where far from over...bassplayers and 2nd guitar players came and went but Drain-Life never stopped writing material!
then it was done...long time friend Martin from Joëls old band Neurotic joined them on bass at last! and they have their five men mosh army once again...
and after a decade, a dozen Tapes, a Demo CD, a Mini CD later they signed to CFC Records and released their full length 'A Prospect of Despair'
Through the many years they grew from a Hardcore band with Metal influences into a Metalcore band with brutal Death / Thrash Metal riffs with midd tempo Metalcore beatdowns and triplets, phat mosh parts and Hardcore breakdowns.
Nowadays you can even find influences from early Death Metal, Norwegian Black Metal from the 90’s, the Bay Area Thrash from the 80’s and the New Wave of American Metal sound of today.
Through dedication and determination they survived it all and their explosive and professional live performances is proof of just that
and their reputation made them last countless shows everywhere,
they are now maybe more motivated than ever to write better songs, greater records and doing even more shows
Being in the game for more than twelve years, made them the hardest and longest running band in the Rotterdam area...
ALL HAILZ!
