Band information

Ebolie is a Sydney band that formed as a three piece in 1998 and quickly issued a demo of intense bass-less grind and brutal death metal. A year or so later Ebolie's original guitarist left and the band went into hibernation until early 2001 with Bubsie and Chewy joined by Glennos (guitar) and Berchual (bass) and extensive gigging culminated in an east coast tour, a self-titled EP and another demo. When Stiffi joined the band, Berchual switched to guitar. While Ebolie's recorded material is fairly solid, on the live front they can usually be relied upon more for jokes and tomfoolery than a musical set. Nonetheless, when it comes together they deliver tight and brutal grind that mixes depravity with social comment.

In mid-2004 the band toured nationally in support of Exhumed and released Elevation Into Disintegration on Bubsie’s label Grindhead. The band appeared at the final Metal for the Brain festival in November 2006. They supported Napalm Death in late 2007. The band is no more.
