Biography
Matthew Sanders was born on 19 December 1972. He began learning to play the drums while at school in 1988. In 1989 he formed Damaged, a deathgrind band in Ballarat, with Jarrod Bongiorno, Jamie Ludbrooke (on bass guitar and vocals) and Paul Meddick.[1] The group's style was described as "hatecore" by SputnikMusic's reviewer, which is a combination of "death metal, grindcore and hardcore elements".[2] Their debut album, Do Not Spit (1993), was described by MetalBite webzine as "based upon hatred and speed. Speed is everything to these guys, speedy guitars, speedy vocals and fucking uncontrollably hyper-based speed drumming. Matt is too fast".[3]
In May 1995 Sanders joined Sadistik Exekution, a Sydney-based death metal group, and toured Europe as their drummer.[4] In June 1996 he provided backing vocals on Blood Duster's album, Yeest.[5] During 1996 and 1997 Sanders was a drummer for Abramelin, Melbourne-based death metal band.[1] Sanders has played with many other Australian heavy metal bands including Noir Macabre, Atomizer (guitar), Walk the Earth, Suicide Bombers, Deströyer 666, Meatpond, Funerary Pit, and Hellspawn. In March 2007 he was acknowledged by Rave Magazine as "Australia’s premier metal skinsman".[6]
In June 2012 Sanders backed Kriss Hades (band mate from Sadistik Exekution) in a performance reviewed by Brian Griffin for Loud Mag, which featured "[Sanders] in full corpse paint ... [with] a shrieking wall of sound guided by [his] precision drumming".[7]
