RETALIATION was founded in December 2005 by Julian Welsch and Sven Lutz under the name of INVALID INJECTION.
After several lineup-changes the band - consisting of Julian Welsch, Stefan Lammer, Johannes Schwarzkopf, Heiko Heckner and Juergen Koehler - finally was ready to enter the stage at the beginning of 2007. One year of devastating live-performances and about 12 gigs followed and the first EP 'Enticing' was released in February 2008.
After months of intense support for the debut, Stefan and Juergen decided to part ways with the band due to musical differences. The original line-up performed its last gig at Eisenwahn Open Air in July 2008.
With Dennis Schneider, Christian Schlosser and Marc Schuhmann joining the horde, RETALIATON forged ahead into new dimensions by adding a new progressive sound to the crushing technical brutality they have been known for.
Right now new material is being composed in order to release a new album at the beginning of 2009. Prepare for an intense experience, the time for RETALIATION has just begun!
