Rigor Mortis originally formed in 1983 when schoolmates Harden Harrison and Casey Orr met Mike Scaccia. The three shared a love for horror/gore flicks and extremely heavy music, and that recipe helped them create a truly unique form of speed metal that had never been heard before. Within five years they had virtually created the thrash metal scene in Texas and landed a major label deal. In 1988, with Bruce Corbitt on vocals, Rigor Mortis released their self-titled debut album on Capitol Records. The band built a reputation as the most insane band in Dallas/Ft. Worth with all-out brawls a common occurrence at their shows. They were the first metal band in Dallas to crossover into the punk scene and be accepted, but not without a fight or two! In 1989 Bruce was replaced by Doyle Bright and over the next three years they reigned supreme in Texas releasing two more records. "Freaks" was released in '89 on Metal Blade Records, and "Rigor Mortis vs. The World" was released in '91 on Triple X Records.

Friday, May 5, 2006 at 1:59 PM this is funny. i just noticed this after replying to you on a different thread. i wish i were in the band. maybe i could be the singer, but as a guitar player, i couldn't even hold mike scaccia's jock strap. the dude is a metal guitar god that no one has heard of.
also, i was 9 years old in 1983... and attending christian school to boot. —plurry |
