History & Biography
New Jersey, USA-based band Sacred Denial crossed the line into crossover territory from hardcore over the years having been founded by Ant in 1982. Guido (later a medical doctor) and Ant were childhood friends. The label's Mike Young managed the band. Strangely, Extra-Strength Tylenol Anyone?, featured older material. North Of The Order introduced bassist Ken after Anthony moved to second guitar for the last album. This record, and its follow-up, was licensed by Nuclear Blast for Europe.

As the title suggests, Exhumed also featured early material, which explains why the act released two albums in 1988. Both featured Janus going by Nu on vocals now. The band managed a tour of Northern Europe towards the end. Dave Scott who was the drummer for Adrenalin O.D and Scrooge had become the second singer.

Ant died in 1998. He and Guido had been in a band called Lucy's Trance. This band had signed with Atlantic Records through A&R Bill Tortugal who was Sacred Denial's early drummer and later a producer of other bands.
