What became Total Vomit Experience was formed around 2005. The aim was to play the kind of grindcore we listened to as kids, Napalm Death, Carcass, Extreme Noise Terror etc. with the lyrics dealing with issues such, poverty, warmongering, animal and human rights, religion, bigotry and so on.
Hometown: Kokkola, Finland
Initially we played as a threepiece, Aki on bass and vocals, Tuomas on guitar and Lauri on drums. We recorded a couple of demos by ourselves, played a few local gigs. We had two guitarists for a while, first Juha and after he left, Timo joined.
After a while Aki decided to focus on vocals and we recruited Antti for bass duties. Some time later Timo left to concentrate on Magenta Harvest. We decided to forge on with one guitarist, because who the hell needs something like guitar harmonies in grindcore anyway?
We released a split 7" with Kashmar in 2012 with additional vocals and screeches provided by Vesa.
A DIY video for the song Respect was released in 2015.
