Formed in the rural wastelands of County Durham, North East England.The idea for Winds of Genocide came about in late 2005 during some heavy drinking sessions and after Kat (vokills-ex vocalist of Old School Death metal band Morstice and Heavy Doomrockers Blessed Realm) and Glynn Hall(ex guitarist of Crusty Death Grinders Revolt and Sludge/HC/powerviolence band Hara Kiri)were getting restless of not being in a band after a few years each in the musical wilderness. The founding members of the band initially had problems finding other members/people to complete the line up who are into such underground extreme punk-metal music in the Durham city area who can play drums and bassguitar but eventually found likeminded people to complete the line up in the form of a Swedish guy called Linus who is now playing drums and also Dan who joined on bass Since Feburary 2009 the band have been furiously writing and working on songs/material first of all as a three piece and then from October 2009 as the current 4 piece.

Debut CDEP "THE ARRIVAL OF APOKALYPTIC ARMAGEDDON" was recorded and mixed over 3 days at Studio 1in12, Bradford in July/August 2010 with BriDoom producing and this 6 track debut studio recording is out now, the Cd version is self released by the band. A pro tape version will also come out on a limited run of pro cassette tapes via Witchhammer Productions (Thailand) sometime in 2011 who have already released the bands "APOKALYPTIC DEATH CRUST" Live.Reh.Demo on pro cassette tape in 2010.
