Biography

"The world's best death metal. We are Torture Division. We are an army of three. We are the world's best death metal band, simply put. Lord K Philipson and Tobben Gustafsson decided that not starting a band together with Jörgen Sandström would be stupid. Upon being asked, Jörgen accepted the invitation and the band was born in the end of 2007. With over 60 years (and counting) of combined death metal experience you understand that we know what we do, we love what we do and that we will keep on doing it until the end of days. Or at least for as many years as we find the inspiration for it. Which quite possibly might be when the end of days arrive.

You know, there's a genre called "death metal"? We certainly belong in that genre. That's what we do, we play death metal with tons of blasts, shitloads of groove and some thrashier passages that bands like [band]Slayer[/band9 only wish they could cook up. Including Reign In Blood. If this is not a description good enough for you, well, check out the section at this site where we actually give you our music for free.

To record three demos first. After that we'll do the next trilogy of demos. And there's a huge possibility that we'll do another trilogy following those. An album? We are not interested in recording an album at this point. We never were. Too many shit bands are flooding the market, bands who shouldn't have an album out with their name on it. We are not willing to be a part of that and we wish that more bands followed our example. If we ever record an album it's when we feel like it. We have already turned down labels who wanted to sign us, simply becoz we are not interested in recording an album at this point. We like to give the people free music, and in return we expect people to support us by buying our shirts and whatnot. The eventual profit we make from that will go straight into future demo recordings and the printing of new shirts. There's not a single band in the world that actually exist to give you music. Except for us. Torture Division is that band."
