Houwitser, the well-known dutch death-metal horde, is back on track! Original members Michel (guitars) and Stan (Vox), joined forces with Ramon (bass), Richard (guitars) and Marco (drums; ex-Altar/ex-Ordo Draconis).
The music of Houwitser is still a combination of thrash, grind and death metal. Absolutely no trendy shit here, just brutal, aggressive and fast music. Ready to blow your ears off!
Houwitser originally started in 1997. Michel (ex-Sinister) and Aad (Sinister) first wrote a bunch of songs together, before completing the line-up with singer Mike (ex~Sinister) and bass-player Theo (Judgement Day). After a couple of rehearsal sessions with the complete line-up they decided to record some promo songs. Houwitser recorded 6 songs on only 4 tracks in one night.
The debut CD 'Death but not buried' was released by Displeased Records in the spring of 1999 and got great reviews and good sales untill now. After some extensive touring through the Benelux, Houwitser parted with their singer Mike and found an excellent replacement in Arjaan "Djortz" Kampman. Soon they recorded the second album "Embrace Damnation" and did even more gigs in the Benelux and Germany. Then Arjaan decided to leave the band, but again Houwitser found another great singer in Stan Blonk. Houwitser entered the Excess studios in the summer of 2001 to record the third album "Rage inside the womb". The album also got terrific reviews in magazines worldwide and Houwitser toured through the entire European continent during the summer of 2002.
In 2004, after the release of Houwitsers last cd "Damage assessement" the band split up. Displeased Records re-released the debut album "Death but not buried" with 7 bonus tracks and new artwork.
But the split up left a bad vibe with Michel and Stan. They decided Houwitser had to rise up from the ashes. Soon they found a second guitarist, Richard Gielen. Unfortunately Theo didn't have the time to join Houwitser again but another bassplayer was found quickly in Ramon Ploeg. The difficult part was finding the right drummer, but they did find the perfect Houwitser drummer, Marco de Groot, who played in other well-known dutch metalbands like Altar, Ordo Draconis and Blind Justice.
With this line-up, the Terror Legion came back, more brutal than ever, to march and destroy the stages and rip your ears off with their thundering Death Metal!
In may 2009 HOUWITSER launched their 2-SONG-DISC "Sledgehammer Redemption" followed by a record deal with SEVARED RECORDS from New York!
Watch out for HOUWITSER and be prepared for their upcomming full-length! Stay tuned for the Trip of Fire!
