Source-derived summary

Wormed is a Spanish technical death metal band. The group formed in 1998 in Madrid and are known for their science fiction and outer space-influenced imagery, lyrics and sound. The band has released four full-length albums.

History

Wormed formed in 1998 with J. Oliver and Dani on guitars, Guillemoth on bass, and Andy C. on drums. The band solidified their lineup later that year with Phlegeton joining on vocals. Frontman, Phlegeton played a significant role in shifting the band’s thematic focus away from gore commonly associated with brutal death metal toward concepts centered on outer space, science fiction, and surrealism. This thematic evolution contributed to the band’s reputation as a distinctive and unconventional presence within the genre.

In December 1999, Wormed recorded their first demo, Floating Cadaver in the Monochrome, with Tana from Avulsed as sound engineer. This promo gained a following, selling more than 1500 copies worldwide. In 2001, the band returned to the studio to record a promo CD, Voxel Mitosis, including only a single song due to a lack of resources.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as spanish technical death metal band. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 26, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6168316. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1998, 1999, 1500 and 2001.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
