+DIE was founded during spring 2005 by the members <em>Bent</em> and <em>Tajs</em>.
+They had long been playing around with the thought of making a death metal band,
+and at this point it seemed appropriate to do so.<br/>
+<em>Simon</em> from Fairytale Abuse was a close friend of the band, so he quickly
+became involved with this new project. <em>Simon</em> has a way with growls and
+screams which suits DIE very well. And combined with <em>Tajs</em>' expert guitar
+sawing and <em>Bent</em>'s drum beating sprees you have an old-school, yet inventive
+band which draws its influences from both the technical masterpieces of our brother
+country Sweden and the old-school American death metal sound.
+</p>
+<p>
+Thus, DIE was formed.
+</p>
+<p>
+A home-produced demo track called Life Eraser was recorded during April 2005. This
+was the very first song to be concieved from DIE. The band decided that a 3-track
+demo should be recorded as soon as new compositions fell in place.
+</p>
+<p>
+Soon hereafter <em>Rasmus</em> joined the band on guitar and <em>Jonas</em>
+joined in on bass. With the band now consisting of 5 members, they decided to
+record the demo Relentless Pain holding the songs Bone Crusher, Relentless Pain
+and Life Eraser(re-recorded solo version). The final demo was printed and
+released to the public during autumn of 2005. It was well recieved by critics.
+</p>
+<p>
+After releasing the Relentless Pain demo, throughout 2006 the band focused all
+their energy on developing their new style, going in a much more brutal and
+technical direction. The compositions follows the same musical principles, but
+adds a lot of technical creativity and speed.
+</p>
+<p>
+2006 was also the year, when DIE performed their first live gig at Musikcaféen
+in Aarhus. This marked an important time in DIE's history, as they proved that
+they can actually perform their songs live. Soon followed a concert arranged at
+the biggest danish metal festival Aalborg Metal Festival, and soon after that a
+concert at Fabriken in Aarhus.
+</p>
+<p>
+In January 2007 the band released another single containing the song Mors Et Sanguis.
+They decided to record this one-track demo to demonstrate the current style of the
+band. A style which will be demonstrated to its full potential on the planned debut
+full-length.
+</p>
+<p>
+Around August 2007 DIE entered the studio to begin recording its debut album entitled
+<em>Rise of the Rotten</em>. The album has a release date of "When it's done", and
+promises to deliver some of the most brutal danish death metal to date.
+</p>
+<p>
+In the beginning of 2008 longtime member <em>Simon</em> decided to leave DIE to
+focus on his other band <em>Fairytale Abuse</em> and his family. <em>Simon</em> has
+helped shape the sound of DIE since the very beginning of the bands' history, so
+it was sad to see him go. He left on good terms and is still a very good friend of
+the band.<br/>
+Soon hereafter the band began searching for a suitable replacement for <em>Simon</em>
+which was found in <em>S&oslash;ren Christensen</em> who joined the band in may 2008.<br/>
+<em>S&oslash;ren</em> will be featured on the upcoming <em>Rise of the Rotten</em> album.
