BIOGRAPHY
With a band name that translates in English as ‘waterdemon’, Germany’s AXOLOTL are a five-piece Melodic Death Metal act that incorporate a number of additional sub-genre nuances to create their own style.
Axolotl from Gelsenkirchen play good old Göteborgean Death Metal with an ample dash of swedish Black Metal known from Dissection. Since 2007 performing in the heart of the german "Ruhrgebiet" they only have one ambition: To convince with their passion and to create what they like most - Music.
Regardless of which influences you might sound out - every preference and every personality flows these musicians are in their early 20’s musicians combine. Dual solos as much as bursting doublebass lines and dark lyrical effusions race against themselves to outline their affection for playing music. After releasing their Demo in 2010 followed by a release of a Live-Demo in 2011 Axolot, performing in the same formation for 3 years now, could assault the "Anubis Klangwerkstatt" in September 2011 to find a skilled producer in Martin Bondzio and to finally see their ideas take shape and pressed on records.
The "Anubis Klangwerkstatt" board to record their first full-length-album titled "Teutonic Invaders". With Martin Bondzio they found a capable producer to press the rehearsal room ideas finally to a sequel. The result saw in spring 2013 under the name "Teutonic invaders" into the world and soon turned out to a top secret in the Death Metal Underground. With "Teutonic Invaders" they swiftly found a significant title while the question still remains how far the Invasion will sprawl around. On their past successions with "Teutonic Invaders" their ambitions to create a future album are undramped.
Early 2014 they began with the recordings for the second album.“Voices Of Luna” is the second studio album which if their career arc is on the right track will start to see the band shed a lot of their early influences and set a course for their own niche in this field.
Those who want a wider Thrash and Epic/Black nuance to their Melodic Death Metal would be well advised to invest in “Voices Of Luna” – as the band can clearly advance up the ranks as this is not Swedish oriented Melo-Death worship music.
