The band was founded in 2001 by drummer Peppone ( the only former member left). The name "Stige" has been taken from the river in Dante's Inferno. The band was born in Mottola (TA - Italy) and all along offers Swedish Death Metal ("Death Bloody Roll"). In 2002 the first demo "Discrimination Disgust" leads to a successfull exhibition as opening act to EXTREMA and NATRON. Several lineup changes keeps the band wait ing until 2006 to release te second demo "Vortex", but during these 4 years lots of live shows were attended. Like the infernal river, Stige's soul is still flowing and yet other unfortunate lineup changes lead to the current one in which the band had the opportunity to perform as opener for EXODUS and TORTURE SQUAD. Finally, at the end of 2009 our new work is relased: ChristMorphosis. In the year 2011 we partecipate in the XVII edition of AGGLUTINATION METAL FEST with BULLDOZER, BOMBERS and more.... , over to appear in the compilation Underground Southern Conspiracy and implement a split with 3 band in our area Dreker, Immortadel and Vinterblot. Now Skar(N)ification is available. Towards the end of 2013 was signed a contract with House of Ashes Prod for reprinting of Skarnification limited edition and for the production and distribution of the next album. At the beginning of 2014 Marco (vocals) decided to leave the band for personal reasons.
