Paganizer

Paganizer is the brainchild of the swedish death metal-mastermind Roger "Rogga" Johansson. The band started as a four-piece in late 1998 as an intend to play old school death/thrash metal. Paganizer's music in the early stage could be transcribed as pure thrash metal (debut album "Deadbanger"), but with their second album release in 2001 with "Promoting Total Death", the band embarked on the full death metal-assault they pursue to this day. Paganizer's music is highly old school death metal-themed, drawing inspiration and paying homage to countless roots of old death metal branches and legends. Rogga and the other members are also involved with the band Ribspreader, which is also a death metal band. Johansson composes most of the music and writes all the lyrics for both bands. Brand new CD EP "Born to be Buried Alive" out now on Asphyxiate Recordings from Australia. All new studio tracks, 1 live track and a bonus "hidden" video!
