Oozing out of a sewer and blending with street muck, Anti-Sapien was born in the chaos of quarantine boredom with a need for crusty slam. Releasing a demo and playing shows almost immediately, as a 3 piece, featuring Richard Aucecema and Blake Charlton (Ramming Speed, Bones Brigade, Slashers, Shredded) the name was released into the scene. Quickly recruiting axeman Nathan Rand (Dissident Corpsepile) to fill out the lineup the band opened for the likes of Morta Skuld, Knoll, Yatra, Somnuri, Immortal Suffering, Demiser, Rawtopsy, Sentient Horror, Bonginator, Cloak, & Animals Killing People to name a few and showing they can fit in with any kind of heavy. A demo track was even played on air by Dean Rispler’s “records of ruin” show via Gimmeradio several times! The band made a lineup change when founding member Jeff Monge (Dieja, Vindicta) left the band and Alex Fewell (Black Mass, Scaphism) joined in on drums. Rehearsing like mad the band managed to lock in and record a 10 song full length in under 6 months! Recorded by Jamie Gazzero (Church Burn) and mastered by Joel Grind (Toxic Holocaust). Also featuring Joseph Kreyvko (Bury Your Dead, Edict) as well as Dave Suzuki (Churchburn, Vital Remains) this vicious slab sounds like d-beaten, crusty mold covered death metal with nods to punk as well as slam. The combination is as infectious and catchy as it is brutal and chaotic. Looking forward the band is excited to already be working on new material as they plan their summer tour!
