++Born of the black jackal’s womb anno 1999, Vomitor is the putrid sound of a dying planet
filth, the nauseating fallout of nuclear war and the terminal torture of endless horror! From the
band’s first release in 1999, the ugly ‘Roar of War’ demo, Vomitor has become an underground
stalwart of traditional, 80s inspired death metal. The band exists in a timewarp as if 1986 had never
finished. The era of brutal demos, vicious albums and the raw, undiluted aggression of what made
80s metal so unique is the lasting influence on the filth ridden style of Death Dealer’s riffs and
approach.
Now on their third album, titled ‘The Escalation’, and a second axe wielding maniac in the
shape of Horror Illogium (Portal) only adding to the band’s power and intensity, Vomitor’s sonic
violence is increased to deliver the ultimate crushing blow live.

++Negative Plane was formed in early 2001 by Nameless Void. Originally, the music
was intended to be bells and organ music, but due to lack of inspiration at the time,
the music was changed to metal instead. The name "Negative Plane " was inspired by
the parts of a picture with the postive picture plane being the brighter and more
prominent colors in the foreground, and the negative picture plane being the darker
colors more hidden in the background. Nameless Void was joined by Greg St. John
and the two of them recorded a four song demo entitled "Surreality" in July of 2002,
with Greg St John on drums and Nameless Void on guitar, vocals and bass. At this
point the musical direction started to change and the music and lyrics became more
occult oriented, as opposed to the "Surreality" demo, which was largely inspired by
the band Ved Buens Ende. Later that year, Nameless Void came in contact with
Bestial Devotion, who joined as the vocalist for the band, and in early 2003, Greg St.
John left the group, leaving the band without a drummer.
After a year and a half of
unsuccesfully trying to find a suitable replacement, it was decided that Bestial
Devotion would play the drums and Nameless Void would continue with both guitar
and vocals, which established the core lineup of the band. Another demo was
recorded December 2004 which resulted in a recording deal with The Ajna Offensive,
and in 2006 Negative Plane's first album "Et In Saecula Saeculorum" was
released. Due to the lack of a bass player, Negative Plane was unable to perform live
until 2007, when an acquaintance was recruited to assist with five shows with Watain
and Angelcorpse. However, a permanent bass player was not found until the fall of
2008 when the group relocated from Florida to the New York City area and recruited
D.G. to fill the ever-vacant position.
In 2009, with the full lineup Negative Plane
headlined two shows in California, and began preparing for their second
album "Stained Glass Revelations" which was financed jointly by The Ajna Offensive
and Invictus Productions. In July 2010, the album was completed and is tentatively
scheduled for release January 17 of 2011.
