ACCURSED (USA/WI)

Accursed's history begins in April 1993 in Wisconsin, with Joe Hartmann on drums, Jeremy Nesthus on guitar, Gabe Catanzaro on bass, and Ryan Olson at vocals. In June 1993, Accursed released their debut demo entitled "Horror Within" which sold about 200 copies. In November 1993 Accursed released their first studio demo "A Curse Called Life", selling more than 1000 copies worldwide. Then, in June 1994, Ryan Olson parted ways with the band and Gabe stepped in to take over the vocals as well as add keyboards. Accursed then recorded the one-song promo "Lament", rapidly selling 400 copies as well as appearing on CD for the first time on a Visceral Productions compilation. Accursed then recorded 2 new songs for Visceral which were planned to be a limited edition 7" but ultimately appeared as a cassette EP instead. In August of 1995 the band entered Allegro Studios to record their first album, "Meditations Among the Tombs". Officially released on October 15 by Visceral Productions, this CD was and has been distributed worldwide by such companies as Osmose, Displeased and others.
