Late ASPHYX Singer/Bassist Theo Loomans' SWAZAFIX Material To See Light Of Day
Vic Records has releasied the early material of late ASPHYX singer/bassist Theo Loomans under his band monicker SWAZAFIX, which was named after a classic CARNIVORE track. Loomans was one of the very early (and influential with his characteristic vocal style) members of Asphyx and sang and played bass on the famous Embrace The Death debut album (1989) and on the legendary Crush The Cenotaph demo (1989) and the Mutilating Process EP (1989).
Together with drummer Bob Bagchus, Loomans was the main composer for these old Asphyx songs. In 1996 Loomans and Bob Bagchus reformed Asphyx (after the split in 1995) and recorded the God Cries album.
Swazafix played pure and raw death metal inspired by old school bands such as POSSESSED, SLAYER, VENOM and CELTIC FROST. Both demo ‘92 and promo ‘91 were recorded at Franky’s Recording Kitchen with Berthus Westerhuis (where all the early Asphyx releases were recorded). The old tapes are remastered and restored by producer/engineer Berthus Westerhuis last fall; eight tracks in total.
The album cover is designed by Ivan Bragin (HEARSE, PAGANIZER, OCTOBER TIDE). The booklets contains rare pictures and liner notes from Bob Bagchus (Asphyx, GRAND SUPREME BLOOD COURT), Berthus Westerhuis (Franky’s Recording Kitchen) and Eric Daniels (Grand Supreme Blood Court, ex-Asphyx).
