  • Bio

    Iniquity has existed since '89 and is today one of the oldest, most acknowledged and best selling Danish death metal acts. During the first years of the band's history two very praised demo tapes were released and the band appeared on several compilation CDs..... In '95 Iniquity signed a deal with Emanzipation Productions (EMZ) and entered the well known Borsing Studio together with Jan Borsing to record their first full lenght album "Serenadium". Due to several reasons the recording got quite delayed and in the meantime EMZ was contacted by Diehard Music Worldwide who were interested in a co-operation. EMZ quickly agreed to become a sub-division of Diehard Music Worldwide and the first release was of course Iniquity's "Serenadium" album which saw the light of day in the summer of '96, highly anticipated by both the press and the fans..... The reactions towards "Serenadium" were generally extremely positive, especially in the US where Iniquity nowadays have a large following. Then a lot of line-up changes occured within the band, but the members however stayed focused on playing live and getting four new songs ready, which were recorded in November '97 by Lars Schmidt (Furious Trauma & Konkhra) at the Soundzone Studio and mixed by Jacob Hansen. At this time EMZ had decided to start up its own independent record company, which turned out to be Mighty Music. The first release was the Iniquity "The Hidden Lore" MCD which was unleashed upon the masses in May '98. "The Hidden Lore" showed a new side of Iniquity. While the "Serenadium" album had it's doomy and gloomy moments, "The Hidden Lore" was just 21 minutes of pure brutal, technical and ultra tight death metal..... More time passed on and the band faced even more line-up changes, but by early '99 Iniquity was in their strongest line-up so far, which resulted in very effective songwriting and some quite succesful gigs. In May '99 the band entered the Aabenraa Studio to record their second full lenght album "Five Across The Eyes" with Danish sound guru Jacob Hansen (Illdisposed, Autumn Leaves, Without Grief etc.). "Five Across The Eyes" displays the most complete recording ever from Iniquity, wowwing the entire death metal scene with its amazingly brutal grinding parts, its gloomy mood and it's technical approach..... "Five Across The Eyes" was released world wide through Mighty Music on the 8th of November 1999 in a limited edition digipack CD with one exclusive bonus track as well as an ordinary jewelcase CD..... The band's final creation "Grime" was once again produced by Jacob Hansen, and released in 2001..... Iniquity is now gone, but their legacy and music will live on in the hearts of thier fans in the death metal community..... ....R.I.P...... ..Note: This is a fan page created for the fans to enjoy.
