Solstice Solstice
a Death Metal band from Florida, USA   flag

Last Update: November 07, 2009

info

Floridians just couldn't get enough death metal in the nineties, as the state produced a multitude of quality bands during that time. Solstice wasn't as well known as their contempories such as Obituary or Deicide, but they did manage two good albums in 1992 and 1995. They disbanded soon afterward but have resurfaced from time to time, and as late as spring 2006 drummer Alex Marquez has stated that they are together and hoping for a third album.

Note: no relation to the British doom band Solstice.
