History
The band was created in 2001 by Nick Melissourgos as a school project.
In January 2007 the band started recording its first full length album, "Eternal Domination" which was released in July. It was that same year that Suicidal Angels joined Rotting Christ's Theogonia Balkan Tour, while later in 2007 they toured with Onslaught and Massacre. In November, Suicidal Angels supported the German thrashers Kreator in Athens.
In March 2009, the band entered the "Music Factory & Prophecy Studios" in Germany to record its second album. Sanctify the Darkness contains some of the group's biggest hits such as "...Lies", "The Pestilence of Saints" and "Apokathilosis". Later that year, the band entered the Rock The Nation and Nuclear Blast contest in which they eventually took first place, topping 1200 bands from all over Europe.
The release of Sanctify the Darkness in November 2009 signaled the beginning of new tours with bands like Kataklysm and Overkill, while it gave the band the opportunity to perform in many European festivals like Wacken Open Air, Metalcamp, the Greek leg of Sonisphere Festival, supporting the Big 4 of thrash metal (Anthrax, Megadeth, Slayer and Metallica) etc.
2010 proved equally productive for the band as they released their third album entitled Dead Again. The record's artwork was created by Ed Repka, known for his work with Megadeth, Death and others. During winter 2010, the band took part in Thrashfest 2010, along with Death Angel, Exodus and Kreator.
