Peaceville

Autopsy burst onto the scene in 1988 with almost immediate infamy. Front man Chris Reifert was already a well-known force on the underground through his time as drummer with Florida's highly respected death metal combo Death.

The band released the demo 'Critical Madness' in 1988 and it wasn't long before Peaceville Records snapped them up in a deal spanning 4 albums.
The Peaceville / Autopsy partnership kicked off in April 1989 with their debut album 'Severed Survival', a brutal explosion of heavy riffs, tight drumming and a screaming vocal, rounded off with concepts of death, disease and diabolica.

1991 saw the release of their second album'Mental funeral' and the highly controversial, 'Acts Of The Unspeakable' surfaced in Oct '92 to widespread delight and fury.

Autopsy's fourth and final album, the glorious scatological gross out 'Shit Fun' was released in the autumn of 1995. With the band more than achieving what they'd set out to do ' Autopsy was laid to rest. Amen.
