news page

Martin van Drunen started out in legendary PESTILENCE and recorded two albums with them, Malleus Maleficarum (1988) and Consuming Impulse (1989).

After his departure from PESTILENCE, he joined ASPHYX as the singer and bass player in 1987.

In 1995, MARTIN was asked to replace Karl Willetts in the UK death metal band BOLT TROWER.

Nine years laters he got into an 'all star' death metal band by the name HAIL OF BULETS

But we are here to talk to VAN DRUNEN about the brand new studio album 'Deathammer' by ASPHYX, released today .

MARTIN is telling us all the details about the record, but also:
- how he's rehearsing with an old style jet pilots' mask or his neighbours will hear his growls and "will think that I'm slaughtering a pig!";
- Why he never manage to do any studio recordings with BOLT THROWER despite spending two years in the band;
- What is so special about the Dutch metal scene - who's the band that started the whole thing and who are the best new bands...

... and many more on this EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW with МARTIN VAN DRUNEN of ASPHYX on radio TANGRA MEGA ROCK.
