About — The artist

Pestilence is a Dutch death metal band founded in Enschede in 1986. Despite various lineup changes, guitarist-vocalist Patrick Mameli remains the sole constant member. After disbanding in 1994 to pursue other musical directions, Pestilence reunited in 2008, but was put on "permanent hold" in July 2014. The band reunited again in October 2016. Pestilence has released ten studio albums, and are one of technical death metal's "big four", with Death, Atheist, and Cynic.
