STILLBIRTH are a slamming death metal force from Hagen, Germany, known for their chaotic live shows, unrelenting brutality, and wild blend of death metal, grindcore, deathcore, and slam. Since 1999, the band have been obliterating venues and festivals worldwide with an extreme sound fueled by filthy grooves, blast beats, and a tongue-in-cheek attitude that’s equal parts destruction and party.

Founded by guitarist-turned-vocalist Lukas Swiaczny, STILLBIRTH quickly gained a cult following with their 2002 debut "Happy Stillbirth Party". After a short hiatus from 2003 to 2005, the band came roaring back, contributing to international split releases and building a reputation across Europe. Their sophomore effort, "Plakative Aggressionen" (2009), led to their first Eastern European tour and set the tone for a relentless schedule of releases and performances.

By 2011, "Endgame Is Near" expanded their reach, earning them a spot on their first US tour. STILLBIRTH's 2015 album "Global Error" marked a high point, with back-to-back tours across the US and Europe. Their signing to Unique Leader Records saw them level up again with "Annihilation Of Mankind" (2018), landing major festival appearances and a tour through Asia.

In 2019, they revisited their roots with "Back To The Stoned Age", re-recording fan favourites with updated production and guest vocals. The follow-up, "Revive The Throne" (2020), doubled down on brutality with dual basses, massive grooves, and razor-sharp production - setting a new bar for heaviness in their discography.

Tragedy struck in 2021 with the passing of bassist and engineer Dominik "Pumpa" König. His legacy lives on in the band’s music and spirit. After signing to Distortion Music Group in 2022, STILLBIRTH dropped "Homo Deus" in 2023, toured Europe with KATAKLYSM and FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE, and crushed stages at Summer Breeze, Party.San, and Tolminator.

Now, STILLBIRTH are poised to unleash their ninth full-length, "Survival Protocol", on October 31, 2025, a dystopian concept album promising their most refined yet devastating sound to date.

STILLBIRTH are a party at the edge of the apocalypse. Total madness guaranteed.
