Carbid!

Founded by Carsten Bätge along with two other guitarists. Shortly after, they recruited Werner Bokranz on drums and Frank Kubein , an old friend of Casten, on vocals. Michael Peters was found through an ad. The band split up in 2017, after 18 years, and played their last show at the Bornemannshausen Open Air festival. Some members went on to form Queen of Distortion in January 2018.
