Artist History HumanWaste were born in 1990 in Tortosa (Catalonia). Its founding members were Carles Matheu, Daniel Audi, Jaume F. Baila and Federic Viles. On these early days they played a very aggressive, fast and technical death metal. You can confirm this listening at their two first demo-tapes, “The miracle of death” (1991 Drowned Prod) and “Existential nausea” (1992 Drowned Prod).In 1994 Lard Records from Japan edited “So is death”, the first HumanWaste CD that included “Existential Nausea” and five new songs recorded at the Metall Pesad Estudios in Barcelona. HumanWaste appears in several compilations CD around the world and plays live intensily with bands like Offense, Mortal Mutilation, Obscure, Absorbed, S.A. or Anathema.We are in 1997. The band changes its concept drastically and begins to experiment with computers, samplers and sequencers. At this time HumanWaste is a two members band (D.Audi and C.Matheu). Two years later “Brothel of souls” is born and released through Falco Music. Eight songs where the always present and heavy guitars and the screaming vocals share protagonism with the analog synths, brass, pianos, strings and orchestral arrangements.At the present HumanWaste is again a four act band and they are recording new songs in their Priapikus Studios. The new staff is more dark wave gothic oriented but still with the heavy guitar sound that the band likes. In October they edited the video-clip from the song "Become your own God", check it at the official web of Human Waste. It was produced by the "Eldiaquemequieras audiovisual design". The evolution will go on…

Press Reviews Chaotic analog synths, dirgy Sabbath guitars and Gene Simmons death-rattle vocals -- the random debris of a fiery collision between Industrial and Death Metal. The components are at times utterly disjointed, but held together by their uniform aggression. - Chad D.
