Profiles

Asunder was a funeral doom/death metal band that formed in 1998 in Oakland, California. Their drummer/vocalist, Dino Sommese, has also been a member of Ghoul, and Dystopia, as well as being a session musician for Wolves in the Throne Room. Guitarist John Gossard was also the guitarist and vocalist of Bay Area black metal band Weakling, as well as another band entitled The Gault. Salvador Raya played bass for the band Laudanum and currently works as a recording engineer at Earhammer Studios in Oakland.

In 2010, the band announced that it had split in November 2009. In the wake of the band's demise, John Gossard has formed a new funeral doom band, Dispirit. The fate of the band's final work, a collaboration with Corrupted, is unknown, although a live version recorded by a radio station has surfaced on the Internet.
