The Berzerker unleashes intense, death-grind metal music that thrashes everything in its path with a mix of industrial, noise, and unstoppably heavy riffs. The misanthropic Australian band that prefers to remain shrouded in mystery and beneath mutant masks began as a studio solo project in Melbourne in 1995. In 1998, the Berzerker signed with Earache Records and in 2000 they released their monstrous, self-titled debut. The band's first video, for the track "Reality," was banned by MTV for its horrific and epilepsy-inducing imagery. After touring the United States with <a href="spotify:artist:2DqzOWVL2ly48IA9bpZdie">Dying Fetus</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:0Q4ioaeWOOlKFVPNdFvp9q">Gorguts</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:5OLgWkV7opwcxN7zOhKb6g">Skinless</a>, the Berzerker went into the studio to record their follow-up. Dissimulate, even more extreme than their first album, was released in 2002. With a cover of <a href="spotify:artist:5lhaM01nwvsMZpmPY2HVER">Carcass</a>' "Corporal Jigsore Quandary," the record proved the Berzerker to be a frightening power in the world of metal, easily outdoing <a href="spotify:artist:3dnH7fdVm2X07MK6Fkbhbt">Gwar</a> at their own game while playing technically gifted music and remaining serious enough to be downright scary. ~ Charles Spano, Rovi
