Founded in 2011 by David S., Ben R., René B. and Jan G., Human Waste built their foundation the hard way - through relentless live activity and no particular interest in shortcuts. Their self-titled debut arrived in 2015 after years of gigging, including an appearance at the NRW Deathfest at AJZ Bahndamm in Wermelskirchen. In 2016 the band completed a ten-day European tour alongside Pighead and In Demise, with dates across Germany, Italy, Belgium, Scotland and England and performed at Deathfeast Festival in Andernach. With ‘Misery Obsessions’, Human Waste mark a clear expansion - integrating black metal atmosphere, grindcore intensity and crust punk abrasiveness without abandoning the brutal core that has always defined them. It is their most ambitious and complete record to date. Being a long-term crucial impulse of and for the local extreme metal scene in the Ván Records' hometown Aachen / Aix La Chapelle it might we obviously, but still worth to underline the personal bonds between band and label. Since 2013, Human Waste have also organised the annual Knüppel Aus Dem Sack Festival at AZ Aachen - a long-running underground metal event that speaks to a commitment to their scene extending well beyond their own band. LP pressed onto White vinyl.
