Axegressor was formed in 2006 simply to play thrash metal, a music style all members have been listening to since their early teens.
Although the music is still emphasized in heavy and thrash metal, there’s nowadays a new progressive approach to riffs and arrangements to give the songs more variety.
Axecution MCD was their first self-financed release, out on September 5th 2007. Sold out in 1000 copies by now. In June 2009 their debut album, entitled Command, was released via Dethrone Music as well as the second album ‘Next’ in July 2011.
In 2014 Axegressor teamed up with French traditional metal label Listenable Records and released their third album ‘Last’ on June 10th. The 4th album ‘Bannerless’ will be released April 13th 2018 by Brutal Records, New Orleans.
So far Axegressor has supported a variety of foreign bands in Finland such as Zemial (Gre), Adorior (UK), Dark Tranquility (Swe), Legion of the Damned (Hol), Toxic Holocaust (USA), Entombed A.D. (Swe), Grave (Swe), Cannabis Corpse (USA), Onslaught (UK), Soilwork (Swe) and Municipal Waste (USA). Axegressor has also been spreading it’s musical message outside Finland by visiting Estonia, Ireland, Russia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia, Germany, Poland, Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Slovakia and Norway.
