AUDIO KOLLAPS was found in 1998 in Hanover/Germany by three members of the famous hardcore punk band RECHARGE. The band´s distinct feature combines hard, aggressive and diversified riffs and beats with concise, nihilistic lyrics; a brutal mixture of Death Metal, Grindcore and Hardcore Punk. In January 2000, AUDIO KOLLAPS recorded 3 songs for a Split EP with WOLFBRIGADE (ex-WOLFPACK) from Sweden and one song for a Finnish RATTUS Tribute Compilation; in August 2000 the video clip for the song “5 vor 12“ was professionally produced. One year later AUDIO KOLLAPS went to Sweden to record their first album called “Ultima Ratio“, produced by Mieszko Talarczyk (NASUM) which was released at the end of 2001 by Epistrophy / Broken Silence. In September, the band went on European tour with VIU DRAKH and ACCION MUTANTE.

The highly - acclaimed successor "Music from an extreme sick world" came out in 2005 and was also licensed in Brazil, Malaysia and the USA, besides two different European versions. Various gigs followed, i.e. on the Obscene Extreme Festival and as support for NAPALM DEATH. A new album will be released in 2008.
