WACO JESUS
BANDINFO:
Founded 1994 in Central Illinois by guitarist Kevin Menssen, these
perverted musicians of death developed into one of the most disturbing
death grind commandos known to mankind over the years - not
only in terms of sound but also visually. Their absolutely sick
covers put even hardened eyes to a severe test. As the cannibals
Impetigo also come from Illinois, it seems that this region is full
of bizarre people. The strange band name Waco Jesus refers to a
massacre committed Febuary 28th 1993 by the Federal Bureau Of Investigation
to a group of religious fanatics in the little Texan village Waco.
The group´s leader was called Waco Jesus. As the tragic incident
rose a lot of attention Waco Jesus adopted the name. The first demo
was released by the band in 1995 in a small edition. After a few
line-up changes the band recruited Lividity- axeman Dave Kibler
and drumchaote Nick Null in 1997. After a few shows in the U.S.
Waco Jesus signed to United Guttural Records, where the bizarre
debut „The Destruction Of Commercial Scum“ was released.
Then Dave Kibler left and in 2002 Nick Null died and was replaced
by Johnny Baker. With him on drums Waco Jesus will continue their
series of attacks on human ethics - by the release of their
second album “Filth”. Musically the guys from Illinois
live up to their image: “Filth”, in parts an extremely
fast manifest of disgust, offers severely brutal rhythms, manic
psychotic growl/screech vocals and guitarwork of morbid and abnormal
styles.
