Immolation ( в переводе с англ. Жертвоприношение) — американская группа, играющая в стиле дэт-метал из города Йонкерса, штат Нью-Йорк, которая была образована в 1986 году усилиями бывших музыкантов из группы Rigor Mortis гитаристами Робертом Вигна и Томас Уилкинсоном, и бас-гитаристом Россом Долананом, на первых демо группы ударником был Нил Бобак но в 1989 году его сменил Крэйг Смиловский с которым группа и записала свой первый студийный альбом Dawn of Possession
Группа Immolation наряду с такими группами как Cannibal Corpse, Morbid Angel, Nile, Obituary, Deicide, Dying Fetus, является одной из значимых дэт-метал групп этого жанра.
Обложки альбомов и тексты песен группы связаны с антирелигиозной тематикой и направлены против религии в частности против католицизма. На более поздних работах группы лирика песен имела политический аспект.
За свою карьеру группа выпустила восемь студийных альбомов, один сборник и один EP, также группой был выпущен в 2004 году концерт на DVD под названием Bringing Down the World.
полная история группы
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Immolation is a death metal band from Yonkers, New York.
They were formed in May 1986 by Andrew Sakowicz (bass guitar, vocals) and Dave Wilkinson (drums) as Rigor Mortis (NY). The name was changed to Immolation in April 1988, after the Warriors of Doom demo which was recorded as Rigor Mortis and Demo I which was recorded as Immolation. The band got a record deal with Roadrunner Records and released their debut album Dawn of Possession through them. They were dropped by the label when the label controversially dropped nearly all of their death metal bands. Later, they were picked up by Metal Blade Records and released the three succeeding albums through them. After the second one Here in After, drummer Craig Smilowski left the band and was replaced by Alex Hernandez. The most recent two albums were released by French label Listenable Records, the same label which released an album by Hernandez's previous band Fallen Christ years before. In May 2001, the band were the headliners for a tour in Europe with supporting bands: Deranged, Deströyer 666, Decapitated and Soul Demise. Unholy Cult saw the departure of guitarist Thomas Wilkinson and the installation of ex-Angelcorpse guitarist Bill Taylor. Steve Shalaty replaced Hernandez on Harnessing Ruin. In February 2008, Immolation toured the US alongside bands such as Rotting Christ, Belphegor and Averse Sefira. As of 2009, the band entered Millbrook Sounds Studios with longtime producer and friend Paul Orofino to record the upcoming album to be released through Nuclear Blast. During January and February 2010, Immolation will tour with headliner Nile along with Krisiun, Rose Funeral, and Dreaming Dead
