Defeated Sanity is a German technical death metal band from Dachsbach, Bavaria that guitarist Wolfgang Teske and his son, drummer Lille Gruber, formed in 1993. The group's lineup currently consists of Gruber (drums), Jacob Schmidt (bass guitar), Josh Welshman (vocals), and Vaughn Stoffey (guitar). The band is known for their brutal, abrasive and intricate style of death metal, while maintaining almost jazz fusion-style influences. Defeated Sanity's genre has been categorized as progressive death metal. To date, the band has released seven studio albums: Prelude to the Tragedy (Grindethic Records, 2004), Psalms of the Moribund (Grindethic, 2007), Chapters of Repugnance (Willowtip Records, 2010), Passages into Deformity (Willowtip, 2013), Disposal of the Dead / Dharmata (Willowtip, 2016), The Sanguinary Impetus (Willowtip, 2020), and Chronicles of Lunacy (Season of Mist, 2024). The group released numerous promos, demos, and splits. Influenced by bands such as Cannibal Corpse and Suffocation, their music is inspired by American extreme metal. Guitarist Wolfgang Teske and his son, drummer Lille Gruber, founded Defeated Sanity in Dachsbach, Germany, in 1993. Initially, it was a side project that Gruber described as "[just] my dad and I jamming." Teske had performed as a jazz rock drummer in the 1970s with bands including Aera.
