Aphyxion

**Aphyxion** is a Danish metal band that’s been tearing up the Scandinavian metal scene since forming in Hvidovre in 2007. With a lineup featuring Jonas Haagen (vocals), Michael Vahl (guitar), Jesper Haas (bass), and Danny Hoyer (drums), they blend melodic death metal intensity with metalcore grit, creating a sound that’s both punishing and catchy. Over the years, they’ve dropped headbangers like their debut *Earthquake* (2011), the thrashy *Aftermath* (2014), and the darker, more experimental *Void* (2020), proving they’re not afraid to evolve.

Known for their blistering live shows, Aphyxion has shared stages with heavyweights like Heaven Shall Burn and Caliban, earning a rep as a must-see act. Their lyrics dive into themes of existential dread, personal battles, and societal decay—topics that hit hard in recent singles like *Ad Astra* and *Heavy Shadows*. Whether they’re unleashing pummeling riffs or anthemic choruses, Aphyxion keeps their sound fresh while staying rooted in metal’s raw energy. Keep an ear out—these Danes aren’t slowing down.
