By late in 2001 Marsh, Creed and Halford had all left and Decayed Divinity’s style had shifted into Swedish melodic death metal territory with the addition of Prickett and Habib from [[Elysium]] and Chad from [[Grenade]]. A full length album was to be released through Venomous Records but the label collapsed; Vickey and Prickett formed [[Bludgeoner]] in 2002 and Decayed Divinity is no more.
