Metal Blade Records history by Dan Slessor:
Founded upon owner Brian Slagel's enduring drive to find great bands and get their music out to as many people as possible, since 1982 Metal Blade has brought wave after wave of powerful, innovative, and often genre-defining music to the ever-hungry metal masses. It is this ethos that has seen Metal Blade build up a stunning and diverse catalogue, weather the various storms facing any independent label, and in an age of declining record sales boast the most successful years of its existence as it strides into its fourth decade.

What perhaps makes this achievement all the more notable is the fact that Slagel never even intended to start a label. Working in an LA record store and writing for various publications, Slagel was acutely aware that many great bands in the local metal scene were being ignored, and he decided to release a compilation of tracks drawn from these ranks. "There were a lot of really good bands and I was just bummed out that nobody could hear them. It just seemed like I could help them out and have some fun at the same time, and that compilation was the first Metal Massacre," he states. Collating tracks from then unknown bands including Ratt, Bitch, Cirith Ungol, and Metallica amongst others, the compilation sold out immediately. "How important is Metal Blade to our career? They're only the reason we are enjoying the worldwide success we have today," states Metallica's James Hetfield. "Without Brian's openness to some raunchy teens with a crap sounding cassette tape we would be who knows where, and playing who knows what!" With the popularity of the tape spurring Slagel on, the first seeds of Metal Blade were sown. "After the success of those compilations I just started putting out records of bands that I was friends with, but without ever really intending it to be a label at all," he explains. "After I put out four or five releases I started to feel like something was happening, and I decided to quit the record store and quit college and see where it went."

Battling through the first few lean years, when the label consisted solely of Slagel working out of his mom's poorly ventilated garage in the San Fernando Valley, it gradually grew in both revenue and stature. Within a few years Metal Blade would go on to release the debuts of Slayer, Armored Saint, Trouble, and Corrosion Of Conformity amongst others, fanning the flames of the burgeoning metal scene and launching careers of bands that would go onto reap global success. "Without Metal Blade, there is a damn good chance we never would've made it out of L.A," says Slayer's Kerry King. "That was the one bit of luck we needed. You can be the most awesome band on the scene, and if no one notices you, you don't catch on. And Brian Slagel is still one of the biggest metalheads I know!" This genuine love and devotion to metal is central to the relationship many of the artists have with Metal Blade, and King Diamond credits much of its relevance and strength to this passion. "I refer to it as having 'boots on the ground'," the mighty Dane states. "It's not like a major label where some people might be into what you're doing but a lot of them just see it as a job – there's a genuine love for metal there. Through staying true to that and doing their own thing they've carved out a very specific niche that they control, and as an artist it's wonderful to be a part of that."over the years. Clearly without those people we couldn't do what we do, and to everyone out there who has helped us along by being a fan we are so very grateful to you."

Los comienzos de la banda se remontan a inicios del 2013 cuando Dave Salazar y Carlos García se reúnen a escribir y componer las primeras canciones producidas de manera independiente. Luego de un largo periodo en busca de los demás integrantes, a fines de Noviembre se acopla Kevin Campoverde al bajo. 
En un inicio Dave en las guitarras y voces, Carlos en las guitarras y Kevin al bajo y coros. Despues de un largo periodo de inactividad se acopla a la banda Douglas Collaguazo, guitarrista también de la banda Wild Sex e inician la búsqueda de un baterista con las aptitudes para ejecutar perfectamente su instrumento, uniéndose a la banda Jonathan Izquierdo también baterista de Speed Harmony y el tecladista Roger Villegas así completando la actual formación. La propuesta musical de la banda ha sido combinar los mejores agentes del metal melódico combinándolos con la brutalidad de un metal más extremo; siendo sus influencias: Children of Bodom, Angra, Runnig Wild, As I Lay Diying entre muchas otras. Los temas combinan melodía y brutalidad con letras destructivas, combinando también las influencias de sus integrantes. La banda en su inicio fue producida de manera independiente hasta que encontró el sello disquero Symphony Records en el cual terminan su primera placa discográfica, Con la cual se embarcaran en una mini gira por ciudades aledañas en lo que resta del año.

MINISTRY OF EVIL posee los extremos más brutales de la música, poderosos riffs, baterías explosivas, virtuosas melodías y una poderosa voz que expresa el sentimiento de cada letra, las cuales expresan esa sensación de poder que puede llegar a tener una persona en los momentos más extremos como la ira, venganza, etc. La filosofía de la banda es brindar al público músicas en las que puedan revivir ese sentimiento de poder que los hace llegar a los límites y dar al público excelentes shows en los que puedan sentir la máxima adrenalina al escuchar las más brutales y potentes canciones

Extinger  surge en la tóxica atmósfera de Quito – Ecuador en julio del 2013 por 4 maniakos adictos a la velocidad y Potencia  influenciados por lo más mórbido del Heavy, Speed y  Thrash Metal. 
Guitarras estridentes , gritos dementes, un bajo desgarrador, y una ráfaga por batería engendran este pelotón cuyo único objetivo es mutilar cerebros  con música violenta y crear caos y destrucción con cada estruendo que emana de su armamento. 

No amos, no maestros!!!
