Biography

Upon being assembled in 2003 by founding members Martin Samson and Stef Jomphe in Gatineau, Insurrection has been growing, modulating, mutating and upgrading to better itself, to evolve over time into the machine of aural onslaught it is known to have become, emerging from the prominent Canadian scene to deliver its own mixture of merciless Death Metal, blending calculated technicality to binary simplicity, assaulting any witness in both French and English, a sound which has followed its own evolution process over the years.

Upon releasing a first self-titled demo in its first years, the formation set itself as an underground landmark in its native national capital region, steadily expanding to bring the Insurrection sound outside of its city bounds. After a few years, the band suffers the setback of lineup changes, but with new blood arises the opportunity to use the process of reinventing itself to reach new heights, bringing in Vince L Séguin and Phil M Latreille to board the juggernaut.

Shortly after, in 2008, the band releases Prologue, its first full length album, recorded with Jef Fortin at Badass Studio, giving true life to the monstrosity for the first time with titles like Fear Tomorrow, Festin d'entrailles and the namesake of the album, Prologue to our Demise. This release was to be the first title in the chapters to come...

Now the time has come to launch the formation's second release, a dark prophecy of the unforgiving times to come, the brutal and relentless rhythm of the soundtrack to the fall of man. For the second time since the project's activation, Insurrection brings you the complexity of the human condition wrapped in the fires of intensity and brute force. Pushing the limits set by the previous outing, Insurrection becomes more than the sum of its parts, every track contributing to this merciless new abomination, Fracture!

Insurrection draws near, approaching your city to convert the unwitting to legion.
