Purtenance
Awaken From Slumber
PURTENANCE is a Finnish band born in Nokia, under the initial name of PURTENANCE AVULSION in 1990, the name under which they recorded their self-titled debut demo that same year and right after the demo, they decided to shorten its name into PURTENANCE. The following year (1991) recorded a demo that would become a 7"EP for Drowned Prod. property of Dave Rotten (current owner of Xtreem Music and vocalist in Avulsed), following the same path of their previous demo. The EP "Crown Waits the Immortal" saw the light in September of that year in a limited edition of 500 copies. Dave, happy with the band, made an offer to them for their first full length, which the group gladly accepted, as he pretty well sold this EP and not only because of the promotion it meant, but also because of the quality of band and their compositions."Awaken From Slumber" shows the heaviest and darkest side of PURTENANCE ever, this time getting an awesome acceptation amongst their followers!!
