Raw Power. Pure Metal.
Back Ignition is a metal band founded by self-taught musician Wouter Merks. In 2026, the band will release its first demo album, delivering raw power and unfiltered energy. The music stays true to its roots — heavy, authentic, and driven by pure passion.
Wouter grew up surrounded by music. His passion for live performance ignited at the age of six. Following years of dedication, he founded Back Ignition — channeling his love for heavy music into original songs with a focus on keeping the sound raw and real.
Back Ignition is currently seeking a drummer and lead guitarist to complete the lineup. If you've got the fire and the skill, reach out — let's make some noise together.
