Hailing from Adelaide, South Australia, Asphyxia are a young five-piece metal band devoted to creating diverse and original heavy metal music. With intricate riffs and melodies, technical drums and brutal vocals, Asphyxia blend their wide range of influences together to create a unique brand of progressive, melodic and brutal metal.

Young and inexperienced, they experimented with different sounds, but were always interested in the metal scene. 8 months later they enlisted Bonno, who brought a mature sound to the band with his technical fretwork. Early in 2006, Zach was brought in to the group as bassist and vocalist, adding his gutsy death metal growls to the mix.
