Rectal Smegma was formed in 2003 by four guys from the west of the Netherlands, aiming to create brutal goregrind packed with groove, blastbeats, and a humoristic party vibe. Over the years, the band has undergone some lineup changes on guitar and bass, but since 2015, they have been stronger—and drunker—than ever. Their sound has evolved from primitive porn goregrind to a fast, aggressive mix of blasting goregrind, groovy death metal, and even some punk influences.



With six full-length albums and several split releases, Rectal Smegma has toured extensively across Europe, Mexico, Japan, and South America, playing major festivals like Wacken Open Air, Hellfest, Summer Breeze, PartySan, and Obscene Extreme.

In 2024, the band released their highly anticipated sixth studio album, To Serve and Protect, marking a new milestone in their career. The album was met with enthusiastic responses from fans and critics alike, delivering a relentless barrage of grooves, blastbeats, and filthy riffs.

The coming year will see Rectal Smegma embarking on a tour through Asia and hitting many major festivals throughout the summer of 2025. With new material in the works and an insatiable hunger for the stage, the band is more than ready to unleash chaos once again!
