BAND WAS FORMED BY SUSAN GERL (GUITAR/ ADDITIONAL VOCALS) BUT DO NOT EXPECT TO
HEAR A "BEAUTIFUL" FEMALE VOCALS AND GOTHIC (BORING ) SOUNDS (THAT MAKES ALL
SICK VERY FAST) OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT ON THIS DISK. SHE FOUND OF AN EARLY
CARCASS MUSIC. SO GOTHIC / BLACK METAL FANS / WORSHIPERS SHOULD AVOID THIS DISK
(AND MY ZINE ) AS A PLAGUE OR AN EBOLA.

DESENSITISED have been around since 2001. The band was not actually formed but
evolved from the band CATAFALQUE, from which Susan (guitars/additional vocals),
Steven (vocals) and Rutger (drums) had been previous members.
In July 2002 their first MCD “Thriving on carnage” was released by Dutch
Bleedin’ Hemorrhoids records and was generally very well received in many
magazines worldwide. “Thriving on carnage” contains seven songs of old-school
death metal incorporating elements of grindcore.
In June 2003 DESENSITISED entered the studio again to record five new songs for
their second release “Bought Beauty” These tracks were released as a split CD by
Grodhaisn productions from the Czech Republic in June 2004. The band shot a
video for the track “Black Gold” in cooperation with Lowlife
Media.
After some major changes in their line-up the band seemed to have found the
right chemistry in 2004 and started concentrating on writing new songs and
playing live. DESENSITISED have played some successful gigs, amongst others with
Arch Enemy, Suffocation, Pungent Stench, Master and Impaled Nazarene.
In February 2005 the band recorded their first full length CD entitled “Virus of
violence”, which was released on Pathos Productions (USA) in July 2006.
In August 2006 bassist Jeroen was replaced by Raets who also played the bass on
“Thriving on carnage”.
