Band information

Abortus was a Sydney thrash and death band from the late 1990s. Shortly after the release of Judge Me Not, Abortus supported Nevermore in Sydney shows and then disappeared from the live scene for almost a year while work on a second album was completed. Original drummer Matt was replaced by Mick Stojcevski in 2001 and Abortus played at the first Bloodlust Festival in Sydney mid-year. Process of Elimination was released in October 2001. Two months later, Abortus toured through Europe with Mystic Circle and Ancient Rites. In mid-2002 Stojcevski announced he was leaving the band although he remained to keep live commitments until Dave Upston from Inferis joined the fold in March 2003. Abortus then toured Australia with Mystic Circle in October 2003, after which Upston left. In mid-2004 Abortus changed its name to Herratik.
