The Fallen Prophets
Death Metal Band
The Fallen Prophets is a four-piece Death Metal band from Cape Town, South Africa. Founded by Francois van der Merwe and Pieter Pieterse in 2013, the band officially launched in 2014. The members have taken an oath with death itself, channeling themes of malcontent, catastrophe, decay, and relentless fury, all of which stand on the pillars of Death Metal. They believe that Death Metal is not just music but a way of life. Their aggressive style, a blend of powerful instruments and intense lyrics, resonates with their personas and evokes deep emotions that the audience can connect with. Although each member has unique musical interests, their shared passion for Death Metal brought them together. Influences include iconic bands such as Aborted, Bloodbath, Cannibal Corpse, Dyscarnate, Hypocrisy, Nile, and Vader.
