Desecration - Welsh Death Metal Bastards

About Me


Welsh death metal bastards Desecration have been causing mayhem and controversy with their brutal yet catchy sound since the mid-nineties. In 1995 copies of their ‘Gore and Perversion’ album were infamously seized and incinerated by the Gwent Constabulary for what they deemed to be its obscene nature. The ensuing court case and media furore firmly established the name Desecration in the South Wales scene and beyond. Not that this band were all media hype and no substance. No fuckin’ way!
Subsequent albums have seen the band consolidate their brutal sound. ‘Murder in Mind’, ‘Inhuman’, ‘Pathway to Deviance’ and ‘Gore & PerVersion 2’ (a re-recording of the original album) each have been more uncompromising than the next and earned Desecration an international fanbase and critical acclaim.
They have played just about every size of venue in every country in Europe with the esteemed likes of Vader, Decapitated, Morbid Angel, Necrophagist and Deicide, ripping shit up on every stage along the way.
Now, over a decade down the line with six albums and myriad live performances under their belts, the trio that is Desecration are touring off the back of latest album, ‘Process of Decay’. This slab of death metal sickness is a concept album following the complete decomposition of a corpse form the point of murder through to burial.
Rest assured: Desecration are here to stay. Look out for them laying waste to a town near you.
