Bossk has released four recordings on their own Eyes Of Sound label before taking a temporary hiatus in 2008. After four years of dormancy, Bossk awoke from their slumber to create in 2012. The band then performed at UK's Damnation Festival in the fall of 2012, and entered the studio to record "Pick Up Artist". In 2013, Bossk completed a UK Tour (their first in four years) with Dragged Into Sunlight. The band also managed to enter the studio to record a version of Fleetwood Mac's "Albatross". Deathwish has now announced a limited vinyl release of these two songs as one 7" EP called Pick Up Artist.

Update:

In November 2013, Alex "Rector Stench" Wank posted the following on Pungent Stench's official website:

"The attempt of an Pungent Stench member to start this band again and to present it as a "Reunion" is pure nonsense and a fake.

Pungent Stench was formed, created & lead by Mr. Stench and nobody else. The goal was reached with the other guy, but that doen't allow him to "re-form" the band again under the Pungent Stench moniker (or anything related). This attempt was made to cheat the supporters and promoters to make some quick cash and nothing else.

By no means I will sit back and see my creation abused - legal action has already been taken. This Church is foul - and this Church will burn!

Mr. Stench/Alex Wank"

After a six-year break, death metallers Pungent Stench are back in business. Original composer, vocalist and guitarist El Cochino (Martin Schirenc) has once again re-animated the band and is joined by Danny Vacuum (Genocide SS, The Accidents) on bass and vocals and Mike G. Mayhem (Hollenthon) on drums. From now on, they will go by the name The Church Of Pungent Stench.
