There are at least two bands called Whip.

1. Whip from Norway plays violent, death-loving black-thrash!

The band consists of; Sturt: (Jens Johansen) on vocals and guitar. Also in Troll, Blindfisted, Nattefrost and Attentat. Mr. Fister (Kai Åsvik) on vocals and bass. Also in Virus, Blindfisted and Enthral. Hellkikk (Kikken Vegsund) on drums. Also in Livstid and Hell Hell Hell. They are based in Oslo, and they have played a large number of live shows over the years

The band was started in 1998 at the coast of Helgeland by Jonny and Sturt. Since then the band has been through a maze of members, psychos, drugs and hospitalizations before the lineup finally was complete in 2010. The band then made and rehearsed Digitus Impudicus, before it was recorded in 2011 and 2012. Polypus Records then signed the band in 2013. Digital release was the 11/11/13 and the LP (Limited handnumbered edition of 500 copies including A2 poster) release was 13/12/13.

Jonny later adopted the alias Profanation of Deity & has recorded raw Von/Beherit indebted black metal under the names Goatchrist, Unholy Crucifix & Befoul.


2. Whip is the moniker used by Jason Merritt for his more solo oriented songs.

He writes a lot, and some of his songs are best rendered by a full band, so he brings them to the musical group Timesbold to gnaw away at.
But sometimes the songs are best left to more spare arrangements, sometimes even just a guitar and voice, so when enough of these kinds of songs build up, he records them and puts them out under the pseudonym Whip.

Thanks to decent record distribution and honorable mention by successful friends, Whip records can be found in small record stores around the world. He performs occasionally with a revolving and haphazard group of players.

He has no hobbies.
