Sulkus was a relatively early entry in the Sydney death metal stakes, existing in one form or another from 1993. The addition of ex-[[Misery]] and [[Manticore]] singer Goulding in early 1996 gave the band some spark and turned them into a crushing live band featuring wildly flamboyant guitar acrobatics from Matesa, who had briefly been a member of [[Mortal Sin]] in 1990. Sulkus had an album recorded in early 1998 but canned it after a dispute over distribution.

Following a drastic line-up change in late 1999 when Matesa and then Richard left and which saw members of [[Shattered Mass]] and [[Ebolie]] join the fold, their presence waned somewhat and although the new line-up's sound leaned towards nu-metal Sulkus had all but split up by the end of that year and by early 2000 was no more.
 
Goulding joined [[Aeturnus Dominion]] in 2008.
