DESCRIPTION:
2008 Death Metal / Metal LP Repressed oN LTd Edition Gold Vinyl - The self-titled album by Swedish death metal legends Dismember was originally released in 2008 and is the only album in the group's career to not feature mastermind, drummer and producer Fred Estby. Still, it ended the first chapter in the band's history on a high note offering a rabid performance by vocalist Matti Kärki, sported some punishing grooves ('Europa Burns', 'Dark Depths'), and brilliant melodic parts in songs like 'Under a Blood Red Sky' or 'Black Sun'.
Recently reformed Swedish death metal pioneers Dismember are proud to announce that they have once again joined the ranks of Nuclear Blast records, where they released their demo, Reborn In Blasphemy (1990), their 1991 debut album, Like An Everflowing Stream, as well as the four records that would follow. Between 1988 and 2011 Dismember earned a notorious reputation as the “Motörhead (version) of death metal”, through eight classic albums and furious live shows around the globe.
The band was formed by Robert Sennebäck, David Blomqvist and Fred Estby in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1988 and has long since been regarded as one of the originators of the trademark Swedish death metal sound, next to other pioneering bands such as Entombed, Grave and Unleashed. Dismember recorded a couple of self-released demos before their 1990 demo cassette, Reborn In Blasphemy, with Matti Kärki on vocals and Entombed's Nicke Andersson taking over most lead guitar parts, got picked up for a wider release by Nuclear Blast Records. In 1991, their first full-length, Like An Everflowing Stream , saw the light of day, which was recorded by Tomas Skogsberg at the now legendary Sunlight Studios, and featured Richard Cabeza (Unanimated) on bass. Dismember released their acclaimed sophomore album, Indecent and Obscene, in 1993, which to this day remains their most successful output.

Dismember is a Swedish death metal band from Stockholm, formed in 1988. They are considered pioneers of Swedish death metal and are recognized as part of the country’s "big four" alongside Entombed, Grave, and Unleashed. The band split up in 2011 but reunited in 2019.
Dismember released their debut album, "Like an Ever Flowing Stream", in 1991, which became influential in the Swedish death metal scene. The track "Skin Her Alive" sparked controversy in the United Kingdom, leading to an obscenity charge that the band successfully defended. In 1992, they released the "Pieces" EP, followed by their second album, "Indecent & Obscene" (1993), which included the song "Dreaming in Red" and a music video featured on MTV’s Headbangers Ball.
In the mid-1990s, Dismember incorporated more melodic elements into their sound with the album "Massive Killing Capacity" (1995). They returned to a heavier style with the EP "Misanthropic" and the album "Death Metal" in 1997, though the latter saw lower sales. Their final album for Nuclear Blast was "Hate Campaign" (2000).
The band signed with Karmageddon Records in 2003 and released "Where Ironcrosses Grow" (2004), before moving to Regain Records in 2005, which reissued their earlier albums. In 2006, they released "The God That Never Was" and toured Europe, including the Masters of Death tour alongside Grave, Unleashed, Entombed, and Exterminator.
After drummer Fred Estby left in 2007, citing family commitments, the band released their self-titled eighth album, "Dismember", in 2008. They also released the two-disc DVD "Under Blood Red Skies" in 2009, featuring live performances and a documentary.
Dismember officially disbanded in 2011 but reunited in 2019 with the original lineup for the Scandinavia Deathfest. Since reuniting, the band has performed selective live shows while limiting tours to short runs due to members’ personal commitments. As of 2026, no new studio album has been released, although the band has material written, with progress hindered by members living in different countries. Their back catalog has been reissued digitally through Nuclear Blast Records.
