Formed in the early 90s in Santiago de Chile by ex-PENTAGRAM mastermind Anton Reisenegger and guitar virtuoso Rodrigo Contreras, Criminal were combining elements of thrash, hardcore and death metal long before the term "metalcore" was even thought of. The band enjoyed a meteoric rise to the forefront of the South American metal scene, including five-digit album sales, shows with the likes of KREATOR, SEPULTURA and SLAYER and a nomination for Best Rock Video at the MTV Latino Video Music Awards, but was faced with severe personal and business problems around the turn of the decade. Reisenegger and Contreras then decided to relocate to the UK, regrouping in a half-Chilean, half-British line-up. Since then, the band has played on major European festivals such as Wacken and Summer Breeze, as well as support shows with bands such as CHIMAIRA, SIX FEET UNDER, BURJERIA and LAMB OF GOD.

Criminal is: Anton Reisenegger - vocals, guitar, Rodrigo Contreras - lead guitar, Zac O'Neil - drums, Dan Biggin - bass.
