BAND

Abaddon Incarnate current line-up

ABADDON INCARNATE

Abaddon Incarnate began in Dublin in 1994, initially performing as Bereaved and releasing the demos Signs of Death (1992) and Tortured Souls (1994), before adopting the Abaddon Incarnate name and releasing When the Demons Come.

The band's early aim was direct: to become one of the fastest and most brutal acts in the Irish scene. Their demo and live reputation led to second place in MTV's Battle of the Bands in 1995.

The original line-up included Bill Whelan, Steve Maher, Olan Parkinson and Rob Tierney.
