Post Mortem

Post Mortem debuted in 1986 with a low-budget album on the New Renaissance label entitled Coroner's Office, featuring a style blending early death metal with perhaps a St. Vitus vibe. An EP followed, and the band seemed to disappear afterward, but they did emerge in the 90's with two releases. After a longer absense, an album was put out in 2009 featuring, surprisingly, Sigh's Mirai on guest vocals, taking over for their original vocalist who passed away earlier that year.
