ABOUT

IMPALEMENT began in 2001, but was a concept even four years before that. As the brainchild of Michael Joseph and Micah Etzel, Impalement focused on the joining of the sounds of traditional metal with a modern approach. Fast, energetic thrash guitars with amazing shred type feely solos and hard hitting double bass drum madness with low to high screaming vocals. Impalement gave notice to the creaters of the american metal scene. Bands like the fab four: Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax and Metallica. Also the near following bands like Exodus, Testament and later on Pantera, paved the road for the sound Impalement was looking for. A metal that was more about hard, heavy force, not pop, glam and sounding pretty. Metal is supposed to be gritty, energetic, aggressive, destructive and thaught provoking, and Impalement knew that was how they wanted to be. Impalement is now out to conquer the world the way only metal knows how to do.
