Apostasy was an old school death metal band from Sydney. Dave Colless was more or less the mainstay/ringleader and despite his involvement with [[Grungeon]], not to mention Sparky's role in [[Tscabeze]], the band existed in some form or another right throughout the 1990s. Sean Burnett was the drummer on their 1992 demo 'Pulse of a Dying Race' following the death of original drummer Steve Hidler. Shane Stewart was with [[Objective Zero]] for a brief period in 1998.
