Mutilated

There's two different bands named Mutilated : - The first one is a brutal death metal band from Redford, USA. In February of 2000 Russ Crossman, Ryan Hall, and Tony Cosgrove formed Decapitator. They eventually changed it to Mutilated, and kept writing songs. With no singer they just wrote the music and lyrics. We did record a demo that had 8 songs, 3 with no vocals. In January of 2001 Justin Emery joined the band and did vocals.

There was a very positive response, a lot of people took a liking to what they were doing. A four song demo was recorded soon after. After the Ohio Death Fest in April of 2002 Mutilated opened for Internal Suffering/Leukorrhea/Beheaded and Saprogenic. That was a crazy show!!! BIll from Forever Underground was at the show and was blown away by what he saw when Mutilated took the stage. Wasting no time he signed Mutilated a short time after that. Mutilated acquired a bass player Adam Meindel to give the band the low end they were missing shortly before they got signed in April of 2002. Off to the studio the guys went to record "Devirginated Genital Pulp" at Studio One in Racine, WI in December of 2002. We continued playing shows up until the release around the midwest area with bands like Gorgasm, Dislimb, Saprogenic, Putrid Pile, Circle Of Dead Children including the Milwaukee Death Fest in August of 2003. Tony left the band after the Milwaukee fest and was followed by Zach Gibson. February of 2004 "Devirginated Genital Pulp" hit store shelves worldwide. With Zach in the fold and one fulllength CD out, Mutilated was still playing shows and fests, with such bands as Decrypt, Plague Bringer, Gutrot, Sadomasochism, Severed Savior, Spawn Of Possession, Pyaemia, and also played at the Minnesota Death Fest. Some new material was written. After a couple months Zach left and Tony Cosgrove rejoined the band in July 2004. With almost an albums worth of new songs Mutilated are still playing as many shows and fests as they can get on...including Central Illinois Death Fest 2004, Texas Murder Fest 2004,The Southern Slam Fest 2005, and other assorted shows with bands like Putrid Pile, Screaming Afterbirth, Bound and Gagged, and in March of 2005 Mutilated will embark on their first U.S. tour with Decrypt and Bowels Out

- The second one is a cult death metal band from France, alive in the early 90's, which released two critically acclaimed demo tapes. Mutilated remains one of the major french DM bands, along with Massacra or Loudblast. After the first split, they reformed with the same line-up under the name Abyssals and released another demo. The ex-members are now in Act Of Gods (fr) and The Seven Gates. Tracks called "Evil Scriptures" and "Tormented Creation" were recorded in 1993 for a 7" record, but this never materialized. A bootleg 12" vinyl limited to 500 copies was released in 2004 by Foreign Legion Records including Psychodeath Lunatics, Resurrected, and the unreleased 7".
