Biography

A career spanning almost two decades, DE PROFUNDIS have grown and developed at a prodigious rate. Over each album their music has blossomed into ever more imaginative and challenging forms, reaching out in a multitude of diverse directions, leaving limiting genre definitions and regulations shattered in their wake with their inimitable take on Death Metal. From their humble beginnings in London in 2007 with their dark, brooding debut “Beyond Redemption”, the band have carved out a formidable resume both in the studio and on the stage, taking their brand of extremity as far afield as India, touring internationally with iconic names such as Immolation, Malevolent Creation, Necrophagia and Rotting Christ. In May 2018 the band pushed these extremities once again, releasing their fifth album “The Blinding Light of Faith” through Transcending Obscurity Records. The album, with its brutal depictions of the horrors committed in the name of the Abrahamic religions, received an overwhelmingly positive reception from both listeners and press alike. Over the next 12 months the band gigged extensively in support of the album, with several European tours alongside bands such as Belphegor, Terrorizer, Skeletal Remains, Melechesh and Vltimas as well as a triumphant Bloodstock Open Air 2018. Not interested in laurel-sitting, De Profundis have spent the last two years of the pandemic working on their new album 'The Corruption of Virtue' to be released on October 7th.
