Asinhell Members, Gear & Sound

Asinhell is a death metal band that marks the return of Volbeat's frontman Michael Poulsen to his roots, drawing inspiration from his early days with Dominus. Formed with drummer Morten Toft Hansen (known for his work with Raunchy) and legendary vocalist Marc Grewe (Insidious Disease, ex-Morgoth), Asinhell delivers a potent blend of crushing riffs and melodic hooks. This powerhouse trio brings together a wealth of experience, with the band emerging from the raw energy of garage jam sessions. Their music channels the aggressive yet catchy spirit of old-school death metal, culminating in their debut album, Impii Hora, produced with the help of Volbeat producer Jacob Hansen.

Asinhell's sound is defined by its aggressive, riff-driven character, with guitars that roar through a wall of distortion while maintaining a clarity that accentuates their melodic elements. The use of Diamond Guitars Hailfire ST BKSS and Gibson Firebird Custom contributes to the band's fiery tone, with Marshall JCM800 heads delivering the quintessential high-gain, tube-driven sound that is both raw and powerful. The dynamic vocal onslaught provided by Marc Grewe is captured through the Audix OM7, ensuring every growl cuts through the mix. Asinhell’s sonic landscape is further enhanced by the precision of Morten Toft Hansen's drumming, creating a relentless rhythm section that supports their intense musical assault.
