Band information
Excarnated was a death/grind band originally formed as a duo of Chris and Paul. Gary was quickly recruited into the line-up for their second demo. Chris and Gary were both original members of Antichrist. After this, Paul left the band to continue with his bizarre side project, Vomitorial Corpulence. Craig (bass) and Chris (drums) then joined to make up the numbers.
At the end of 2000, Gary left Excarnated and Paul returned to play some live shows. Homicidal Decimation was recorded as a two-piece of Chris and Craig and released in mid-2002. Keil and Tony then joined the band, but shortly afterward Craig was let go and Keil stepped aside for personal reasons.
Chris and Tony recorded "Where the Dead Dream". Keil then rejoined and ex-M.S.I. bassist Nick was also added to the line-up. Live shows began once again and when drummer Matt was found, Excarnated remained stable until June 2005 when Tony departed. Another recording was begun for release in 2006; in March Excarnated supported Disgorge but at the same time Matt announced he was leaving to return to Queensland. With his departure, Excarnated announced that their appearance at the Metalstock festival would be their last show and the band has now ended.
