Soulburn is a Dutch death metal/black-doom band.

History[]

Originally Soulburn emerged after a first demise of Dutch death metal band Asphyx in the mid-90s, when founding members Eric Daniels (guitars) and Bob Bagchus (drums) looked for a separate outlet to unleash their mutual obsession with Bathory and Venom. After a demo and the cult Feeding On Angels debut album via Century Media Records in 1998, which featured Wannes Gubbels (Pentacle) on vocals and bass, Soulburn were put to rest when Asphyx returned with “On The Wings Of Inferno” (2000) with the same line-up.^[1]

And 16 years after their debut album, SOULBURN resurfaced in their new line-up featuring the core of Eric Daniels (guitars) and Bob Bagchus (drums), teaming with Twan van Geel (Legion Of The Damned) as vocalist/bassist and Remco Kreft (Nailgun Massacre) as second guitarist to create “The Suffocating Darkness”.

Their second album was recorded with Harry Wijering (Harrow Productions) and mixing and mastering duties were taken over by Dan Swanö and Unisound Studios. The front cover was designed by Timo Ketola (Watain, Deathspell Omega, etc.) and additional art was provided by Roberto Toderico (Asphyx, etc.). A video clip for the song “In Suffocating Darkness”, off The Suffocating Darkness, can be seen online.^[2]

Most recently, Soulburn released a split 7-inch EP with Desaster in 2015 featuring the new track “The Lats Monument Of God”. Soulburn launched first song off the new album Earthless Pagan Spirit soon to be released, third studio album on November 18, 2016, via Century Media Records.

Following up 2014's The Suffocating Darkness effort, the new album was recorded in The Netherlands at Harrow Studio as well as Double Noise Studio and then mixed and mastered by Magnus "Devo" Andersson at Endarker Studio in Sweden (Marduk, Ofermod, etc.). The album's opening track, “Where Splendid Corpses Are Towering Towards The Sun”, can now be checked out online.

Soulburn vocalist-bassist Twan van Geel made the following comment about the track: “We are proud to present you the opening track from our upcoming album 'Earthless Pagan Spirit'. This song is a classic ode to the supremacy of the blackest of Metal. 'Where Splendid Corpses Are Towering Towards The Sun' ravishes straight through the high hopes of a self-proclaimed righteous people and their plastic vanity. And at the triumph of their death, scorched by the sun of their own divinity, in the serene mist from their ashen skulls, we dance.”^{[citation needed]}

In June 2018, Bob Bagchus departed Soulburn. He was replaced by Marc Verhaar.^{[citation needed]}

Finished recordings an mix, the upcoming album 2020 release at november 2020 titled:

Noah’s Dark

A symbioses of the biblical tale combined in today’s reality mirror. Yes, a play of words, and even more so, a decay of births. And please indulge, feel free to wrap your own thoughts around it. For it

surely is, in the very core of its essence, a title in honour of the strength and the art, of chaos and freedom. A Satanic gesture if you wish, clashing with the mundane hollowness of empty parasites sucking on the big nothing. A lucid statement in praise of the ever lurking darkness that surrounds us, drinking it, eating it, to thrive in triumph over boredom. To exist through self-meaning rather than just be leaning in false acceptance or expectations. To grow some horns that is. With every breath you take (the Sting! Yes ; ) the dark draws near. And no matter how many you wish to save on your trail through the light, it for surely be for just a moment in time. For that’s all we are, and we are not to be saved in the end. And I wish to embrace this moment, in the total clarity of the darkness ahead. This is Noah’s Dark, this is a tale of life, and even more so, of the uncountable death’s ahead. Put your teeth in it like I did, and absorb. Noah’s Dark is yours as much as it is ours. And there is Magick, lots of it, and it is yours too, and hell yes, black as night it is!
