DECEASED - Originally from Arlington, Virginia and formed in 1985, Deceased was the first band to sign to Relapse Records in 1990 where they released 6 albums. "Fearless Undead Machines" and "Supernatural Addiction" are both known as classics in the underground metal scene.

After parting ways with Relapse in 2002, Deceased continued regularly touring and releasing albums, eventually signing to Hells Headbangers Records, who released 2018's "Ghostly White," as well as their most recent full length, "Children of the Morgue." Deceased's sound centers around themes of horror and death, with lyrics barked and sometimes narrated by vocalist and founder King Fowley.

Musically, Deceased wears their influences on their sleeve, enveloping everything from death metal to heavy metal to even hardcore & punk roots. In 2025, the band celebrated 40 years together with several tours, festivals, and a commemorative 2-disc retrospective encompassing four decades of death metal from the grave!
