Band Information

Killengod played feverishly blasting total death mayhem with a feel and execution similar to Deicide but with a far more obvious thrash/black influence. Killengod was formed by Nyp after the dissolution of Obfuscate Mass under the name Blitzkrieg and roared out of the Gold Coast as a three piece with the under-produced but nonetheless excellent Transcendual Consciousness (with Drexler Roberts on bass) on a musical mission of vehement anti-religious hatred which was continued mercilessly on the even more superior follow-up album.

Killengod had the potential to be a name on everyone's lips, with a brutal and unrelenting live performance.
