Grendel is a Dutch aggrotech band that was initially founded under a different name. The name is derived from the Anglo-Saxon legendary figure Grendel .

history

In early 2000 Grendel released the first promotion CD , which also contained the Dutch dance floor hit Strangers . Within a very short time this song was played on many dance floors in the Netherlands and internationally (especially Germany, Belgium and Spain).

Shortly afterwards, Grendel received requests for live performances, and FLRS (Live-Synthesizing and engineering) also joined the band.

Half a year later the first demo CD with the title Inhumane Amusement was released. This demo caught the attention of the German label NoiTekk (a subsidiary of Black Rain Records), which Grendel immediately signed. The demo was remastered and redesigned, after which it was released as a debut album in combination with new songs in 2001.
