With a sound uncompromising and aggressive like burning sulphur, Protector should have been ranked among the bigger names in German thrash. Any thrasher worth their salt has heard of "Protector of Death", "Misanthropy", "Golem," and "Urm the Mad"; but suprisingly, Protector never really grew beyond their underground status before they disbanded in 2003. The resurrection of Protector began in 2011 with original singer Martin Missy along side a new line-up that consist of Mathias Johansson (bass), Carl-Gustav Karlsson (drums), and Michael Carlsson (guitar). After a demo and a split single, their 2013 full-length album, Reanimated Homunculus was a return to their roots.
