All things come to an end and in this case, the curtain has fallen for the original line-up of Inquisitor. Although some new songs and musical ideas have been created, the album “Stigmata Me, I'm in Misery” has become the swan song, and this album is a great testament to what the original line-up of Inquisitor was capable of. During the pandemic, and due to recent developments, it was not possible to keep the original line-up together. Erik, Wim and Alex Bakker who all have their unique sound and style as individual members, left the band and are no longer part of Inquisitor and will never perform under the name of Inquisitor or be part of Inquisitor ever again. Without these three members Inquisitor is over and done. Wim was already a member of Sammath for some time, and you can expect a new album of Sammath in the near future. Erik and Alex Bakker are looking to form a new band while keeping on creating new musical ideas. Erik, Wim and Alex Bakker like to thank everyone who supported us in the past and salute those who will support us in the future.

INQUISITOR writing new music !!!

For the first time in over 20 years, INQUISITOR, with all four original members, is busy writing new music. After the reunion one year ago, INQUISITOR took some time to get back into shape and play some nice shows. But now it's time to get serious again and create new music for a future release, which we hope to get out next year; 20 years after our latest Walpurgis - Sabbath of Lust" album. The first few songs are ready and you can expect nothing but the unique INQUISITOR style of frantic, Xtreme, fast, filthy God-Damned Metal, with the sick, energetic vokills of Alex Wesdijk.

We hope to give more details about this future release in the next few months. !

Alex, Erik, Alex & Wim
