The psychobilly Cenobites was influenced by fifties rocknroll, punkrock and raw psychobilly bands,
like Demented are Go, Motorhead, Exploited and Elvis. Over the years they developed
their self-proclaimed cenodemonicsounds.

Cenobites was founded January 1994 in the Netherlands as a trio consisting of Alien -- guitar and singer, Horrible Hak -- double bass and Creepy Kiel -- drums. But like with all bands this line-up
did not last very long. So bassplayer and guitarists came and went until P.G. Vogeli
joined them in the summer of '95 and guitarplayers Jeff and Michell in '99. Because Alien
did not just play guitar but also was the singer, they had to find a replacement on vocals
as well. They found the right guy in Dimitri. With this line-up they built up their current
reputation. Just before a tour in Germany (2002) Jeff and Michel were replaced with Wally (Walter).
So it was four of a kind until Kiel also left the band after ten years. Rudy Röss replaced
him for a while. With him they recorded the "Snakepit Vibrations album", which he helped
produce. He stayed with the band for about a year and a half untill he found out that their
thing was not his thing. Now Nik Reitsma is beating the cans like crazy. When they were
recording "Blue Fandango" they ran into bad wheather again. Wally had some private business
to take care off. He left the band and was replaced by Rudo, who has been the founding member of Dutch hardcore legends I-reject... At the end of 2007 Wes 13 joined Cenobites to play 2nd guitar. In oktober of 2008 NIk leaves the band to concentrate on his carreer as profesional drummer and Rudy Ross returned to the band.

Current line up:
Dimitri - vox
