Biography

There are multiple artists with this name:

1) Abscess is an american band that also combines some elements of and into their sound.

The band was born from the ashes of Autopsy, featuring some of its former members. Although the lyrics remain rooted in the themes of horror and gore, Abscess has a more ‘tongue-in-cheek’ approach to death metal compared with Autopsy.

Abscess has so far released six full-length studio albums: Seminal Vampires and Maggot Men (1996), Tormented (2000), Through the Cracks of Death (2002), Damned and Mummified (2004), Horrorhammer (2007) and Dawn Of Inhumanity (2010).

2) Abscess is an band from Germany that formed in 1994 consisting of vocalist Jan Bicker and composer/programmer Sunny Schramm. After self-releasing several demos they signed to Glasnost Records in Hamburg, Germany later that year. Working with famed X-Marks the Pedwalk frontman and producer, Severn-Ni-Arb (André Schmechta), at his T.G.I.F. Studios they recorded and released their first album in 1995, “In Your Mind”, to wide-spread positive reviews. The following year they produced, recorded and engineered their second album, “Journey”, on the same label. For their their third and final known album, “Punishment & Crippled Reality”, they moved to the legendary Zoth Ommog label in 1999. This was reprinted that same year on the Gashed! label. They have also made several compilation appearances.

With the collapse of Zoth Ommog they have not released any further material although they are rumoured to have material for another album. Sunny Schramm continues to be involved in the music industry as a producer and re-mixer under the pseudonym of ‘Type (2)’.

    autopsy is way better lol. macabre eternal is like abscess writing long songs, I mean, the abscess is all over it, so comparing it to an abscess release is noise.

    Am I alone in thinking the weird mix of psychedelic, doom, and punk just makes this even better than Autopsy? I mean Dawn of Inhumanity is seriously better than Macabre Eternal.

    Abscess war eine Elektro-Formation, die 1993 von Jan Bicker (Gesang) und Sunny Schramm (Musik) in Kiel gegründet wurde. Das Projekt vermischte zunächst Dark Electro mit Jungle-Anleihen, mit dem zweiten Werk verlagerte sich der Schwerpunkt auf Ambient-, Film-Score- und Trip-Hop-Elemente.
