Deathfiend are a 3 piece sludgy death metal band from Birmingham, formed in 2019 by John Pickering, ex member of hardcore crust punk legends Doom / Police Bastard/ Sore Throat, Andrea Pisu on Drums and Rick Farn on Bass. Their crushing debut album ‘Beyond Life’ was released in November 2022 on Gruesome Records and recently on Vinyl via Phobia Records and has been welcomed worldwide by lovers of primal early death and black metal, fans of early Celtic Frost, Discharge and Motorhead, hardcore, sludge and doom fans and everything in between. Deathfiend mix gargantuan riffs with breakneck fast sections and atmospheric psychedelic soundscapes. They are currently recording their second album ‘Dark Rising’ and touring venues around the UK.
