Decapitated

Profile of the performer Decapitated: Death Metal group from Poland. A gifted group of young musicians who formed in their early teens. The band's average age during their debut album [r=633808] was just 17. Decapitated surprised many of their peers with their incredibly mature and forward thinking sound.



After finishing a tour for their third album [r=684900] in 2005, singer Sauron (3) decided to leave the group under amicable circumstances. The rest of the band members decided to recruit singer Covan, previously of Atrophia Red Sun. With their new singer in place, Decapitated released [r=633817] in 2006.



On November 2nd, 2007, while on tour in Russia, the band experienced a car accident which claimed the life of drummer Vitek, and seriously injured singer Covan, who is still recovering from those injuries.



Since the band were without a permanent bass player at the time, Vogg was left as the only member of Decapitated. He temporarily joined Vader in 2008, but later that year decided to reactivate Decapitated. The band finally reformed in 2009 with three new members, Kerim Lechner (aka Krimh) on drums, Rafał Piotrowski on vocals and Filip Hałucha (aka Heinrich) on bass guitar. Hałucha later left the band in 2011 after the release of 'Carnival Is Forever'.
