Glutton For Punishment was started by Rob Carlson and Ken Coy out of the ashes of Tempestuous in 2003.

The songs were meant to be more thrash/death metal then what they were previously doing with Tempestuous.

They recorded 5 songs. Three songs with Al Towne - vocals (Si6ks, Mastiff, We are Legion), Pete Follingstad - guitar (Unurth, Tempestuous, Putrid Christ), Jn Magnuson - Bass (Avalanche, Tempestuous) Andy Radio - bass (Ripsnorter), Ken Coy - drums (Unurth, 21st Century Sin, Tempestuous) and Rob (Unurth, Tempestuous, Krepitus, Ripsnorter, Sadistic Passage), playing guitar on all five and doing vocals on two of the five songs.

Al moved on in 2004 and Glutton for Punishment continued to write, but became dormant until Rob resurrected it in 2013 with Tony Garfield.

The band is now more death metal with less of a thrash sound as they had before, with some of the old songs ripped apart and re-wrote.

November of 2013, Glutton for Punishment recorded two demo tracks with Rob doing vocals to get the name out there again.

February 1st Glutton for Punishment will begin recording their first full length with their new vocalist Dan Schreier for release spring 2014.

Oh yeah, Craig joined the band and then left the band.

Now, in April of 2014, we welcome Aaron Whitesides and Gil Wick !
