ABWHORE started originally as a three-piece under the name ONE FLESH. Soon after was the addition of guitarist Dave Hardy, and then the name change in 98' back as the original three-piece line-up. There were numerous demos as ONE FLESH from 96' - 98'. With hours of radio play, live play radio broadcasts and many successful shows under their belt came the new name, sound, and two releases. And who could forget their famous METAL remake of the old english standard 'Greensleeves'?

Reviews:
Creative Loafing Zine, October 1999
"Best of Atlanta" Critics Choice: ABWHORE
"This metal-salad power trio is based in Marietta, GA, but don't hold it against 'em. Since their inception in '96 they've constructed an impressive machine, churning up plenty of energy while blending many metal sub-genres...old and new. They nevertheless have the fortunate sense to avoid messing it up. Their self-titled EP unites heavy, thrashing power with technical proficiency and the joy only variety can bring...the Best Atlanta Metal Band of '99."
"Abwhore!...The greatest band yet to emerge from the depths of north Georgia" - Wangoed
"Whoa! King Diamond meets Old Man’s Child in an amazing kind of way. Black Metal perfectly blended with Death Metal heaviness, a touch of Doom here and some occasional keyboards....I don’t usually get this excited about a release." - Critical Mass
