TORMENT was created in the first semester of 1997 with the intent of making extreme and technical music, headed towards death metal's aggressiveness.
In 1998 the demo-tape "Hypnotized By The Profane Flames" is recording, featuring 5 songs dressed in brutality and great rhythmical variation, with psychological and grotesque lyrics, dealing with the ramifications of the unknown in phantasmagorical and surreal themes.
After widely spreading this material and having the change to play other states, the band gains a large interaction inside the local underground scene.
Subsequently to a hiatus in the productive process, due to line-up unstability and the difficultu to find other people that could give sequence to the work in a satisfactful way, the band had to cease its activities temporarity. Months later, with a brand new line-up, once more able to carry the flag of brutal death metal, the group decides to return to practice, counting on a name change, being now called IN TORMENT, due to the existence of similar groups. This action based in the attempt to make it impossible to relate their epithet to those of other bands.
In December of 2003 begins the recording process of the second demo, entitled "The Prelude To The Human Suffering", featuring 3 songs even more extreme and technical, evidencing again the whole power of their songwriting.
Due to a strong distribution and the acceptance of IN TORMENT's new and improved sonority from the audience and the specialized media, is offered the band the chance to support the American Cannibal Corpse in Porto Alegre, Brazil. This gig has without a doubt helped IN TORMENT to strengthen its name.
After several shows around the south of Brazil, the band is offered a record deal from Rapture Records, to release their long-waited full length debut. Armed with even stronger determination to the new endeavor, IN TORMENT chooses Hurricane studio, in Porto Alegre, under the wings of Sebastian Carsin to begin the process.
Hard labor later, IN TORMENT finishes the recordings and proudly announces their newest register, entitled " DIABOLICAL MUTILATION OF TORMENTED SOULS", released in March of 2006, keeping intact the bands traces of brutality, technique and tempo variation, in order to correspond to the expectations of the ravish extreme music followers.
