History & Biography Korpse was an extreme band in the unlikely town of Aberdeen, Scotland beginning in 1989. The logo sported a Celtic knot. The trio were school-mates. The band first appeared on the scene with the Mauler demo in 1991 and a 1993 single. The group played gigs with Gorefest and Necrosanct except the Newcastle date was AWOL. The band were there, but the promoter and concert were not. These garnered the band a contract with the upstart Candlelight Records. The scammy Tombstone had offered the band a contract earlier. The group was dropped and disbanded following Revirgin, which had demonstrated an offbeat change of pace and direction. Taff had left. A sampler of the band’s samples appeared in 2005 and was called Mirror Distance.
The band abided by the rules and reformed in 2012. As per the rules, there was as much output and activity as pre-reformation. The band did play a ew Scottish gigs, a gig in 2013, promised a live EP and DVD and disbanded.
