Biography

Morbid Saint was formed in November 1, 1984 in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. The band debuted a demo in 1988 titled Lock Up Your Children, licensed by Edge Entertainment to Mexican label Avanzada Metálica, where it became their debut album Spectrum of Death in 1990. They were both released separately before the band had signed to a label. In 1992, they released a fan-exclusive demo titled Destruction System as an advance cassette for a planned second full-length, but never was officially released in latter form. A single-sided demo titled The Black Tape was released later that year containing only four tracks from the Destruction System demo. The band then split-up in 1994.
In early 2010, Morbid Saint announced their reunion with a new line-up, performing various shows in the U.S. and abroad, including the 2012 edition of Maryland Deathfest, Metal on the Rocks in Mexico City and the 2013 edition of the Keep It True festival in Germany. In 2012, the band released the compilation album Thrashaholic, containing both Spectrum of Death and Destruction System in remastered CD-R format, with four new songs and a live DVD in DVD-R format.
In 2014, the band released the live album Beyond the States of Hell, which was recorded live from Beijing. In November 2015, Destruction System was officially released as the band's second full-length album that was originally intended for release in 1992, but went unfinished since then, with new artwork.
