There are 2 bands called Engorge, one from the Netherlands and one from the United States. The Dutch Engorge was formed in 1994 in Nieuwegein, the Netherlands. The band plays Old school Death metal, mid-paced, low-tuned and groovy. After a demo ('Struggle of Death', released in 1996), the first full-length 'Awaiting To Subside' was released in 1999. After the release the band played many shows throughout the Netherlands. After a period of rest, the second full-length album '50 Megatons Of Armoured Steel' was released in 2003, a concept album about German warship the Bismarck.
