History & Biography
Erosion was a German crossover band that became increasingly relevant to metal fans as time progressed. Line-up changes were aplenty and the band's history went back to 1987 when Zenk, Nowakowski, Kaiser and Romhild got together as Black Laws. Bringing bassist Bünning aboard the imperial ship, the line-up was complete. The band changed its monicker, recorded a demo called Way Of Force and signed to We Bite Records for four albums. Kaiser disembarked after Mortal Agony and, with Michael Hankel enlisted into the fold, the band set out to support Ludichrist. Bünning left after the tour and Wischnewski recorded the second outing. Wischnewski took off to Australia in 1991 and Ewaldt joined the gang.

III was quite heavy and the band toured again. Chris and Peter took off to the considerably mellower Schwanensee, Hankel left and the band invited new singer Daniel Geiger and guitarist Boris Drager in. Although Down is no downer, the band decided to leave Erosion in peace following further disarray internally. The band reunited in 2001 for several shows but things didn't last for Zenk, Hankel and Romhild. The band reunited again In 2001 and was working with Emils members Carstens (bass) and Zisowsky (drums). They were playing shows and writing songs. Erosion finally split up in 2003. The band can be heard on several samplers like Dies Ist Hamburg Nicht Boston ('This is Hamburg Not Boston'), Hamburg 88 and We Bite sampler.
