A year after the beginning, Mürgas wasn't on the right way, and musicians, who want more extreme and diversity, founded "Slaughtery" and began new death metal compositions substantially different...

It was also an opportunity for some changes in the line-up. Quentin left the band shortly after Slaughtery's debuts and François passed on guitar. Nico joined the group in early August 2007 to officiate as singer and it was time for them to release their first demo entitled "Obsessional Complexity" in 2008. The François' disappearance make a pause in the history of the musicians who decided to continue anyway, still heavier, varied and technical. Over a year later, Laurent joined them as permanent guitarist.

It was the moment to return to the studio recording their first album "Path-(t) o-logic," falling 2011...

Slaughtery played with groups such as Cattle Decapitation (USA), Emeth (Be), Excavated (Be), Gorod (Fr), Hypnosis (Fr), Massive Charge (Fr), Neverlight Horizon (Be), Trigger the Bloodshed (UK), Welkin (Be) and many others.
