Fleshgore is a brutal death metal band from Kyiv, Ukraine, active since 2002. Over two decades — through stylistic shifts between brutal death metal, thrash, and deathcore — they have established themselves as one of the most enduring extreme metal acts in Ukraine.
Fleshgrind formed in Chicago, Illinois in 1993 when guitarist and vocalist Rich Lipscomb and drummer Dave Barbolla united to play brutal death metal rooted in early Suffocation and Mortician. Their 1993 demo Holy Pedophile circulated widely in the underground, selling over 2,500 copies and securing a deal with Pulverizer Records, which released the debut full-length Destined for Defilement (1997). The band delivered two further albums, The Seeds of Abysmal Torment (2000) and Murder Without End (2003), before disbanding in 2005, leaving behind a catalog that remains a reference point in the Chicago brutal death metal underground.
Fleshkiller is a progressive death metal band from Bekkestua, Norway, founded by Ole Børud following Extol's hiatus in 2013. Their 2017 debut Awaken reunites Børud with former Schaliach bandmate Peter Dalbakk, blending technical death metal with melodic vocals in a progressive framework that fans of Extol's later work will recognize.
