History & Biography
Detest was formed in 1991 and hailed from Bröndby in Denmark. The band's album was touted as a concept based on Caza's Lailah and featured a guest appearance by Bo Summer of Illdisposed. A second album and a live CD of the band's appearance at Roskilde Festival were promised, but never materialized. The band was also heard on its 1992 demo called Deathbreed and compilations like Death Is Just The Beginning and Fuck You We Are From... They also supported Death and Carcass. The act disappeared in 1996 pending the obligatory reformation.

The return was in 2013. Members started coming and going. John Petersen switched to guitar. Ole Christensen was part of the reformation line-up, but soon decamped. Dark Symphonies released an EP called A Moment Of Love in 2019. A full-length followed in 2021. Simon Springborg was on vocals. Danni Jelsgaard was on drums. Then again he was in the band of the month club and so departed Detest in 2024. Anders Nissen joined on second guitar in 2022. Detest’s A World Drowning In Detest album was out through Emanzipation in December 2024.
