Martin van Drunen is a Dutch death metal vocalist, who started out in the band Pestilence. In this band, he also performed the bass duties live. He recorded two albums with them, Malleus Maleficarum and Consuming Impulse. After his departure from Pestilence, he joined Asphyx as the singer. For this band he recorded two albums as well. He performed guest vocals on Comecon's second album Converging Conspiracies and then formed his own band called Submission. In 1995, he was asked to replace Karl Willetts in the UK death metal band Bolt Thrower. He did two tours with them, but never recorded an album. He decided to leave Bolt Thrower when he suffered from a disease, alopecia areata, that made his hair fall out in 1997. It seems he has recovered from that illness and has started a new band called Death By Dawn.
