To support the launch of The Search, Heavy Metal Maniac Records and producer Monica Moses Dell in February 1989 organized a big concert in São Paulo, at a place called Projeto Leste, with capacity for 5000 people. That night Necrosis was the star of a show that also featured local bands MX, Korzus and Ratos of PORA. A few days before the event declines stellar group of that show, Kreator. Necrosis was asked to close the show.

Necrosis returned to Chile in March 1989 with 1000 copies of the album The Search, which sold rapidly, continuing local concerts with average attendance of 2000 "thrashers."

The band remained active some time but studies of some members and others would eventually work to separate them. Andy Westphal Nacrur and Rodrigo left the band to pursue other projects. In 1990 he made a final concert at the House Constitution, where it gets a break from career Necrosis in an indeterminate way.

Meeting and return to the Scene of Thrash Metal

After some years of silence Necrosis returns. In 1999 Andy, who took a while to "Massakre" decides to resurrect the band and only one of the original formation accompanying Nathaniel Infante on guitar. New musicians gather together to project strongly in the local metal scene. Gustavo Robles on vocals, formerly of Enigma, Victor Trujillo, former Añasco OrateGod and Caesar were to summon reinforcements around 1000 in a popular disco thrashers of the capital.

Besides training starts recording the new songs that would necrosis as a result the album Enslaved To The Machine, which would be put up for sale and shown live to the public in December 2001.

After major concerts with Massakre, sadism, torture or the meeting of Pentagram, necrosis occurs in La Serena in January 2002 where shortly after the concert, Caesar stands back and lets a hard place occupied by the large number of changes was. After some changes in the band, guitarist stable at that time was Daniel Duarte, a former Tornado and Belial.

Continuing with the hard work of finding musicians and continue to lead the Chilean thrash scene, the band recruited a second time to Daniel Duarte with an unknown guitarist, Roberto Villaroel. Unfortunately the job did not work with them and had to be replaced by Gerardo Salas (former Sepsis, and Atomic Noise Machine Necrodead) and Lorie Martin (Deimos), which gave a touch of modernity and aggression that the band needed.
