Fleshkiller

**Labels:** | * Facedown Records
 **Former members:** | Peter Dalbakk

**Fleshkiller** is a progressive death metal project that originated in Bekkestua, Norway out of Europe. The project was formed by former Schaliach bandmates Ole Børud (Extol, Antestor) and Peter Dalbakk (Vardøger). The two hired on Umpfel Drummer Andreas Skorpe Sjøen and Tristania Bassist Ole Vistnes. However, Dalbakk departed from the band in 2017, with longtime A Hill to Die Upon and The Burial member Elisha Mullins joined the band as a Vocalist.

## History

Fleshkiller originated as a new project of former Schaliach bandmates Ole Børud and Peter Dalbakk. The two had performed together, recording with a debut album and split release before parting ways, with Børud joining Extol and Dalbakk joining Vardøger. The two hired on Umpfel Drummer Andreas Skorpe Sjøen. The band would also add on Ole Vistnes of Shining and Tristania.

Dalbakk would sadly depart from the band after a year, to spend more time with family, announcing that Elisha Mullins (War of Ages, The Burial, A Hill to Die Upon) would take over the Vocalist position. Børud had gotten in contact with Mullins due to both of their time on Facedown Records. The band would then sign with Indie Recordings in Europe and Facedown Records in the United States. The band released three singles prior to the album - "Parallel Kingdom", "Warfare", and "Salt of the Earth". The band released Awaken on September 15, 2017 through Facedown and Indie Recordings.
