Formed in 1989 by Hempa Brynolfsson (guitars), Per Ax (drums) & Johan Melander (guitars). From the ashes of CRUCIFIED and other bands, EXCRUCIATE was now born.

In April 1990 they recorded their classic "Mutilation Of The Past" demo. As they didn't have a vocalist at that time they got help from Christoffer Johnsson (THERION), and he did a really good job behind the microphone. After the recording they got two new members, Freddan Isaksson (bass) and Christian Carlsson (vocals). The demo got very good reviews in the underground movement.
