Terminal Descent has become a "cult" underground Metal entity since its establishment in 1997 (though the concept was developed between '91-'93) and has been a "sly fixture" in the underground Metal scene...slowly gaining ground like a writhing serpent, it has retained its originality while shedding its skin with every release, bringing it closer to a more mature offering with each venture...growth of the individual outweighs the need to compete with others.
