Biography
Placed in the dark North of Denmark. Defacing God are a 5-piece dark Extreme Melodic Death Metal outfit hailing from the city of Aalborg. Inspired by opulent Scandinavian metal traditions, the project was formed in 2015 by co-founders; vocalist Sandie "The Lilith" Gjørtz and drummer Michael Olsson.
Defacing God base their conceptual themes on the seeping darkness that moves in us all – rooted in occultism and witchcraft, but primarily the mythologically mysterious female demon Lilith and her tales of fervent defiance and perseverance.
Through their storytelling, music and aesthetic, the band pulls their listeners into a dark universe of
obscure myths, folklore and ancient stories, all the while weaving in often subtle lyrical inspirations
from modern societal oppressions and personal demons. Sonically, DEFACING GOD balance massive
extreme melodies with a twist of grandiose orchestration by Lars Vinther, echoing the styles of artists
such as Cradle of Filth, Carach Angren and Dimmu Borgir. But rather than blend it with a
conventional dose of black metal, the band proudly merges these auras with infernal death metal.
Produced by the highly sought out producer Jacob Hansen, Defacing God's debut album "The Resurrection of Lilith" was released on September 2nd, 2022 through Napalm Records.
