Disabled - The Final Exhumation

With this "The Final Exhumation" we will really make a great jump in the past, returning to 1992... year of formation of this French cult band originally called Drowned.

Disabled was born in Bordeaux in 1992, from four boys dedicated to a fierce and aggressive death metal of a clear mid-European mold. Within the group, stands out in the role of guitarist a certain Eric Moyen brother of Chris, known in the metal world for his remarkable artistic skills made available to hundreds of cult bands during all these years.

From 92 to 95, the band produces 4 destructive demos, "Disabled" (just to clarify the change of monicker after the past experience as "Drowned"), "Demo 93", "Here Lies Your God" and the last " Promo Tape" of 95.

The next two years were very busy, and the boys concentrated on releasing their final release that has now become "cult" for all lovers of the death metal genre: the EP "Faith Ablation"! It features an eerie intro along with 5 tracks. During the following months, a new song was composed, 'Doomed To Extinction' but it has never been recorded in studio, like some other older tracks such as 'The Last Stage Of Human Lunacy', 'The Fall Of Christ', 'Theater Of The Absurd', 'Disabled', 'Crucifixion Of The Gods' from 1992, 'Here Lies Your God' from 1993, 'Ultimate Desecration', 'Enslaved In The Maze Of Darkness', 'The Eagle Of Eli' from 1995 and 'Child Abuse' from 1996. A year later, in 1998, the four boys decided to end this project.

Fourteen years later, we are in 2012, the beast of Disabled was awakened from his eternal sleep to print what was thought to be the collection of all the material composed by the band in previous years and that's how it was released "When All Is Slayed" a compilation that was supposedly complete.

Six years later, we are in 2018, Chris (brother of Eric Moyen) found by chance a cassette with unpublished and never published sessions... very probably dating back to a few years before the release of the famous EP. This crude sessions features rawer versions of four of the five tracks that would end on the EP and songs that were exclusively available as live versions prior to this exhumation.

Awakened from a sleep that lasted for decades, all the work was printed on tape with the eloquent title of "The Final Exhumation". Obviously the work went completely sold out; The band had not been forgotten!

Finally, all Disabled work is now available on CD at long last through Xenokorp's Kvlt Series, mastered at famous Conkrete studio (Mercyless, Otargos, Putrid Offal...), with artwork and layout by the legend Chris Moyen (Beherit, Blasphemy, Incantation...) and liner notes by journalist Olivier "Zoltar" Badin (New Noise, Terrorizer, Zero Tolerance...), "The Final Exhumation" exited from beyond the unholy grave for all true death metal fans to consume! All hail the exhumed remains of the death meta master!!

9 tracks of pure and iconoclastic death metal! To have! Point!
