MORBID CELEBRATION FROM FINLAND!!!

Funebre, Xysma and CONVULSE were the first three pioneers in Finland all releasing their debut death metal albums in 1991. CONVULSE came out with that dark, brutal, uncompromising style of Death Metal that became the trademark of the Finish scene. 

The band’s 1991 debut album World Without God was released on the French label Thrash Records. Despite the awesome reception of this breakthrough record, CONVULSE wanted to move on and add new elements in the new recordings.




They introduced brand new Death’n’Roll elements first in their EP Lost Equilibrium to fully refine them on their second full-length Reflections, both of which were released on Relapse Records. Then CONVULSE disbanded in 1994 falling into a 18 year inactivity.




In 2012, the band was asked to do a one-off festival appearance that became a ressurection of CONVULSE. Outside of live shows, they released a new material on their EP Inner Evil with their comeback album Evil Prevails in 2013. The album is a classic, menacing, old school Finnish Death Metal full of strong riffs and brutality. However, CONVULSE wanted to push the envelope once more with the Death’n’Roll elements. Their fourth studio album Cycle of Revenge released in 2016 was a great release with progressive rock influence, groove, and melodies still with the death metal background. It was a bridge to the latest album Deathstar blending all the influences of Death Metal, Heavy Rock, Prog Rock, and even some good old fashioned Rock’nRoll to create what may well be their absolute peak of creativity and innovation. Deathstar was released via US Transcending Records at the end of 2020.




CONVULSE were already confirmed for OEF 2022, but unfortunately due to contracting covid-19 they couldn't make it then, so the 2024 anniversary year will be a time to reminisce about the old days. CONVULSE rehearsed all tracks from their classic debut album World Without God for fans to hear them live celebrating the album‘s 30-year anniversary. Join us in welcoming CONVULSE to perform at OEF the timeless classic tracks such as Incantation of Restoration, Putrid Intercourse or Resuscitation of Evilness. The morbid ceremony from Finland is coming – CONVULSE!!!
