------------------
Formed in 2006, Father Befouled play unholy and desolate death metal. After some demo tracks online garnered interest, an EP, "Profano ad Regnum" was released in 2008 and the band began playing regional shows in the US. A full length, "Obscurus Nex Cultus" quickly followed and after more shows and a couple of split releases, the band signed to Relapse Records for the release of "Morbid Destitution of Covenant" in 2010. The band laid low for a couple of years before playing the inaugural Martyrdoom Festival in New York in 2012, which coincided with the release of their third full length, "Revulsion of Seraphic Grace" on Dark Descent Records. 2015 saw the release of "Enthroning Desolation" - a compilation of demo, split, live, and rare tracks - and a short tour of the East Coast. In 2017 the band headlined the Blood of the Wolf Festival in Lexington, Kentucky, as well as a performance at Maryland Deathfest to celebrate the release of their fourth album "Desolate Gods." The band embarked on their first European tour in May of 2019, releasing an EP, "Holy Rotten Blood," and capping off with a performance at the Netherlands Deathfest.
2022 will see the release of their 5th album, “Crowned in Veneficum,” a 9-song paean to the poisonous raptures of death metal and unholy blasphemy. A 2022 European tour is in the works with a stop at the now-twice postponed Killtown Deathfest in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Emerging from the South Atlantic's deepest chasm, São Paulo's Fossilization came to light during the depths of the modern plague in 2020.
Their debut EP, 'He Whose Name Was Long Forgotten’, released to widespread devastation in 2021.
Having seen multiple pressings by Transylvanian Recordings (USA), Everlasting Spew Records (ITA) and Desiccated Productions (DEN), the record served as a lightning rod for founding members V. (guitars, vocals, bass) and P. (drums) — both also members of doom metal beast Jupiterian — to then excrete two new tracks for their 2022 split with US death metal entity Ritual Necromancy.
Fossilization is now in the pre-production phase for their much anticipated full length album, due early 2023.
