Houwitser, a Dutch band that was formed in 1997 by members of Sinister; Aad, Mike, Michel and Theo from Judgement Day. In that same year Houwitser recorded a promo with 6 songs and in June 1998 Houwitser signed to a Dutch record label:Displeased Records Their debut "Death...but not Buried" was released in the spring of 1999 and got great reviews all over the world. Before recording their next album Houwitser parted from singer Mike and found a replacement in singer Arjaan "Djortzzz". With him they recorded their second album "Embrace Damnation" After an intense promotional tour and a video clip a second guitar player (Alex from Sinister) was added to their line-up. In 2000 Arjaan "Djortzzz" announced to leave the band due lack of time and devotion. A few months later Stan was introduced as the new singer of Houwitser.
