Before becoming a band, the band was a one-man band formed in 2005 by Sasko Mojsov (guitar), but back then I was a young enthusiast and played different styles like death, black metal, hardcore, and thrash metal.
So I didn’t know what style to choose and decided that the band’s name should be Nuclear Blood because I was a fan of many horror movies.
Then I made 2 songs recorded on Guitar Pro and suddenly stopped.
I started playing in two different bands, one was Poltergeist and the other Knights of Honor, so Nuclear Blood stopped writing and jamming. Then in 2011, I decided to restart Nuclear Blood as an old school thrash band and from 2011 to 2013 I wrote 3 songs as instrumentals without lyrics.
Then I met my friend Marko, whom I invited to the band as a guest or bassist, and we started writing lyrics and that’s how the first two songs were born (Artillery Barrage/At war with People). We decided to rename the band to Slave Pit, our current name.
The inspiration came from the war in Macedonia in 2001. And so the band started working and made 5 songs that resulted in the first EP called At War With People.
After that, we had a show at T’k T’ak Fest in honor of a great drummer who played with legends of hard rock and in his project Bagas Trajko Karov, which I participated in in 2008.
At that festival Slave Pit performed as a duo without a drummer and we took third place. In 2014 Slave Pit started working seriously and there were line-up changes.
It started as a one-man band and later we became a trio with some friends (Pece Svekarovski – Sabbath – drums / Marko Nikolovski – bass).
After that, as the founder, I decided to move to Sofia/Bulgaria and I put together a line-up of 5 people and had a show.
