The band was born in 1998 with the name of Lilith, playing trash black metal. At the time, the oldest member was 20 years old. Lilith was, more than anything, a project that they would use to begin to know the metal scene of Ecuador. The band split up after year. In the year 2000 Julio A.K.A. Macabre (guitar), Juan Pablo A.K.A Deadly (voice and bass), and Ricardo A.K.A Chicho (drums) got together for creating a new project with a new different style.
IMPULSO DE TANATOS Starting from the point that Tanatos is the God of death, Tanatos Impulse is a concept that describes the human self-destruction in all its senses, that's why some of the lyrics are related to this concept, others to their wanting to destroy the stereotypes used by the system to end with the tendencies of the new generations, which they reject.
In the year 2001, the band was at a more steady level, creating solid tracks with their own style based on the different influences of the members (Trash and Death Metal)
In the year 2003, the band releases its first MCD “Gobernantes de un Infierno” (Hell Governors), which would be useful as a first presentation to Ecuador and some other places around the world. This work received good critics many local and foreign zines and magazines.
In 2005 David Tomaselli (drums) joins the band. Then, the last work of the band was recorded “Brain Putrefaction” which was edited in Ecuador in co-production of three labels DISTURBED RECORDS - SUBTERRA - METAL CENTER. This CD reached many places around the world such as Japan, where the label BLOODBATH RECORDS decided to make a new edition of this work with a different cover that will be out soon.
On August 2008 the band acquires a new line up. Edu in the principal guitar, Esteban in the drums and Juan Pablo in the bass and voice. In this year the band signed a contract to loan most of the tracks of the "Brain Putrefaction" CD to an Ecuadorian film called "Impulso" from the Director Mateo Herrera. "IMPULSO" del director Mateo Herrera. The film will be launched in the first months of the next year. FUTURE PLANS The band is now working in new songs which will be recorded in the next months.
The band will continue creating more brutality. Trying to improve professionally and to reach more people and places around the world all the time.
