Bent Sea


Bent Sea is a Belgian American Grindcore Band created in January 2011 by drummer Dirk Verbeuren. After writing and recording a number of songs, Verbeuren enlisted vocalist Sven de Caluwe of Belgian death metal band Aborted and multi-instrumentalist Devin Townsend for the Townsend-produced debut EP Noistalgia which was released as a digital download on November 11, 2011 and later on cassette format by Tankcrimes.

The first of these recordings, "Partners In Grind" appeared on Double Penetration, a free digital split single with Swedish death metal act Torture Division. Animalist/Usurpress, an split EP with Swedish death/crust act Usurpress saw the light of day in early 2014 on CD via SelfMadeGod Records and on 10 inch vinyl via Doomentia Records. Ascend/Descend, a split EP entitled with Cleveland grindcore band To Dust was released in July 2016 on 12 inch vinyl by Give Praise Records.
