Whether it be Black, Thrash, Death or Heavy Metal... Sterbhaus deliver their brand of sonic slaughter without trying to reinvent the wheel, but rather doing what more bands ought to be doing i this day and age... And that is playing bloody timeless Metal.

Sterbhaus is a four-piece thrash/death combo of Stockholm that since the start in 2007 has proved well that quality and a neatly weighed dose of humor can blend in perfect symbiosis. Completely revitalized as a quartet Sterbhaus now boast humor with sarcastic tounge-in-cheek wit and proudly do so on albums like the 2012 release “Angels for Breakfast …And God for Lunch” on hilarious yet highly convincing videos and most importantly... LIVE!

Having toured Europe as support for Vader and Melechesh (2013), played festivals such as Extremefest 2013 (Behemoth, Kataklysm etc), Rock Harz 2012 (Blind Guardian, Amon Amarth etc), Metal Splash (Sodom etc), Way of Darkness (Sodom, Entombed etc) to count a few, as well as headlined several special show at the better venues in their native Stockholm Sterbhaus, the crusade is really just beginning. Metalheads with a soft spot for drinking and getting a healthy overdose on everything that makes a Metalhead truly tick... will do good in not missing Sterbhaus perform.

Carved and chiseled out during five weeks in Abyss studios (Tommy Tägtgren) and mixed and mastered by Jonas Kjellgren of Black Lounge and the newly released effort (out: 24th of August 2012) has also proven Sterbhaus to be a potent injection not looking to reinvent the wheel but rather approach metal with straight-to-the-point honesty. The Metal press already agrees with top reviews of 8/10 (Sweden Rock Magazine), 9/10 (Swedenmetal.se), 10/10 (Medazzarock.ch), 9/10 (Time-For-Metal.eu) to count a very, very few.

So… yes! Although Sterbhaus does not succumb to anything pretentious there is indeed an agenda aside the humor. As the ever growing popularity of metal unfortunately comes with the downside of pure infection or watered out potency – today is as good as any day to take to arms. No mere bickering or pointless backstabbing. You either know your Metal or You don’t. The past has offered Grunge, Nu-Metal, Hair bands and what-not. The present provide sensationalistic covergirls/pop-vocalists backed up by an array of various douchebags whose only affiliation with the scene is catching sitcoms of legendary Metal frontmen, and a Metal-core scene of a fashion ridden boy-band:ish approach without the slightest idea of what the essence of Metal really is. Half the shows You catch on festivals etc is 50% playback and the energy and burning conviction of what this kind of extreme music represents disappears out the window or is just completely misunderstood.

Sterbhaus - What you see is what you get, and what you get is a bloody good ride. No fancy gimmicks or cheap shots at nothing for the sake of creating sensations or promoting idiocy… Hmm... Come to think of it, “idiocy” is somewhat of an important part of the band... just check the videos! And tell you what... we're proud of it! Still, rest assured: This is a cleansing – A much need so.

Pull up a chair, have a drink …and join this crusade
