ANARCHUS ARE A STAR OF GRINDCORE SCENE IN SOUTH AMERICA. FOUNDED AS LONG AGO AS IN 1987 AND STILL INEXHAUSTIBLY TORMENTING THE UNDERGROUND STAGES WITH THEIR ENERGETIC GRINDCORE PIECES.

IN NOVEMBER OF 1988 THE FIRST DEMO OF THE BAND "TOTAL HATE" WAS RECORDED, FOLLOWED IN 1990 - AND WITH JULIO ALVAREZ IN THE GUITAR-OF THE FIRST EP OF THE BAND, "FINAL FALL OF THE GODS" WITH RIGID RECORDS.

BOTH RECORDINGS GET A GREAT RESPONSE IN MEXICO AND OTHER COUNTRIES AND BY MAY OF THAT YEAR (1990) THE BAND HAD A MINI TOUR IN TAMPA BAY, FLORIDA FOR THE PROMOTION OF THE EP PLAYING NEXT TO BANDS LIKE ASSUCK AND PAINEATER.

IN 1991 ENTERS MIGUEL ANGEL CORTES "THRASHER" AND IN 1992 JAIME "THE GRANDFATHER" IN THE DRUMS.

IN SPITE OF MULTIPLE COMPLICATIONS AND CHANGES OF MEMBERS THE BAND CONTINUES PLAYING FOR ALMOST ALL MEXICO SINCE 1988.

OVER THE FOLLOWING YEARS SOME OF THE RECORDINGS HAVE BEEN REEDITED AND SEVERAL COMPILATIONS HAVE ALSO BEEN PERFORMED.

IN 2004 THE GROUP CARRIED OUT A VERY EXTENSIVE AND SATISFACTORY TOUR OF JAPAN FROM 2012 TO 2015 THERE WAS AGAIN MORE CHANGES IN THE LINEUP UNTIL THE ARRIVAL OF LUIS OROPEZA (WHO HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN IN THE BAND,AS LEAD GUITAR AND WITH WHOM THE BAND'S RECORD THE FIRST ALBUM: "AGE OF CONSENT"), VERNON BLAKE, BODYBAG BOB AND MIKE PETRAK.

THE NEW CD IS RECORDED EARLY 2017 AT THE MAT STUDIO AND MASTERERED AT DREAM ON RECORDS 10 BRUTAL GRIND ATTACKS IN THE VEIN OF ASSÜCK AND EARLY MISERY INDEX MATERIAL.

AFTER 30 YEARS OF EXISTENCE A REAL BLAST FROM THE SOUTH AMERICAN SCENE HEROES ANARCHUS.
