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 formed in 1988 in Stockholm, Sweden. They have released eight full length albums, three EPs, two live DVDs, a demo compilation, and a single. The band split up in 2011 but in 2019, they announced a comeback and are touring again. They are known for having a distinctive "chainsaw" guitar tone courtesy of the Boss HM-2 Pedal and recording and mastering at Tomas Skogsberg's Sunlight Studios.
In 1991, Dismember made headlining news in the UK for having a song called "Skin Her Alive" on their "Like An Ever Flowing Stream" debut. Accordingly, while authorities were inspecting Nuclear Blast packages for any "obscene" material under the newly passed Obscene Publications Act. In short, this was taken to court and Plastic Head (the company responsible for distributing their CD's) won the court case and was awarded money where the Dismember record was deemed neither "pornographic, obscene or indecent".
Richard Cabeza was removed from the band due to distance issues. Richard went down to Texas during the recording of "Where Ironcrosses Grow" because that is where his wife lives and she was pregnant at the time. Cabeza and his wife planned on moving back to Sweden and having the baby born there. For some reason, Swedish immigration would not allow it. The distance became an issue for the band, and Richard Cabeza was replaced by Johan Bergebäck.
According an interview, the band had originally used multiple band names, one of them was Asphyxiator; Nicke Andersson came up with the name Dismemberizer, but as the name didn't fit on the first demo, the band settled on Dismember.
The band's logo was created by Nicke Andersson, drummer of Entombed and Nihilist.
