Deceased is a former death metal band from Virginia. Founded in 1984, the first band to sign to Relapse Records, they released four full albums through the label, along with a number of EPs, demos and re-releases of early demos. Leaving Relapse Records in 2003 to sign to Thrash Corner, the band continues to release material to this day. Though their style has changed through the years, turning into a cross between thrash and heavy metal, with slightly harsh vocals, compared to the early and rawer death metal sound of their original works.
