The band was idealized by and composed of members of the Brazilian comedy act Hermes & Renato (currently known as "Banana Mecânica" - Clockwork Banana) that aired on MTV in 2002, in a trash horror movie-like segment that showed a youngster who bought a Massacration record and, by playing it backwards, triggered a curse that, ultimately, turned back against him.
After this segment, an "exclusive interview" with the five band members and then, the video premiere for "Metal Massacre Attack", were aired.
In these segments, the name of the band did not have the present spelling: it read "Masacretion" on the record cover, and "Massacrassion" in the interview sketch.

After the making of the song (and video) "Metal Massacre Attack", the video began airing not only on the Hermes e Renato comedy show, but also on the MTV regular rotation videos.
The promo video was such a success that the crew was forced to make more songs and videos. "
Metal Bucetation" followed "Metal Massacre Attack".

In 2005 they finally finished their first album, Gates of Metal Fried Chicken of Death, produced by João Gordo, lead singer of Ratos de Porão, a reputed hardcore punk Brazilian band.
The first single was "Metal is the Law".
Because Jimmy "The Hammer" and Headmaster are not real musicians, Igor Cavalera recorded the drums and Blondie Hammet recorded all the guitars.

They have been requested to perform live their songs, and have so far appeared in the Abril Pro Rock Festival and Brasil Metal Union (the latter an all-heavy metal festival).
Most of the humour effect of the band relies on its use of a fake English (mocking the fact that many Brazilians prefer foreign music despite being unable to understand it), exaggerate posing, outrageous clothes and gear.

The success they achieved was so high, they even have their own MTV show, where only heavy metal videos are broadcast (which, to some, is surprising, considering the pop-oriented nature of MTV).

It is rumored that their tour drummer is Cavalera Conspiracy's Igor Cavalera.
Massacration actually opened some venues for Sepultura during the course of 2005, and Cavalera actually played with them in some venues, under the alias "El Covero" (Spanish for the gravedigger).

Massacration debuted in 2006 in Rockgol, a Brazilian MTV show, in the Pirulândia team, along with Supla, Falamansa, Sonic Jr. and Lucas Santtana.

In 2009, the follow-up album, Good Blood Headbanguers, was released ("Good Blood" being a literal translation of the Brazilian expression sangue bom, meaning a nice, trustworthy person).
By this time, the band's aesthetics has leaned more towards glam metal (notably in the power ballad "The Bull", about a man who was cheated on by his girlfriend) while generally retaining its traditional metal sound.
As another highlight, the album was produced by Roy Z, well known for his work as guitarist in Rob Halford's solo project and as producer with many other bands and artists such as Bruce Dickinson.

In July 30 of 2014, Fausto Fanti (Blondie Hammett) was found dead in his apartment.
He hanged himself with a belt.

In May 20 of 2016 Massacration reunited and released a new song called "Grand Pedido" to promote the return of McDonald's Grand Big Mac hamburger, which uses elements of rock and heavy metal as main concept.
In December 20 of 2016, Massacration's comeback was officialized, with the release of a new single, "Metal Milf".
