Vomitorial Corpulence was a Christian goregrind band that originated in Melbourne, Australia. The band was started by Paul Green.[3] The band's name is inspired by Revelation 3:15-16.[4] Along with fellow Melbourne band Mortification, it was highly influential in the innovation of Christian death metal in the early 1990s.[5]

Background and impact

[edit | edit source]

Vomitorial Corpulence started in 1992 as a vision of guitarist and vocalist Paul Green, but did not get moving until 1993, when he hired on bassist Mark Hamilton and drummer Alexander O'Neil,[6] the latter of whom had formed the band Cryptal Darkness.[3][7] In 1995, the band released 21 songs under the title Karrionic Hacktician as part of a compilation, The Extreme Truth – Australian Metal Compilation III, by Rowe Productions.[3] O'Neil quit in 1995.[6] The band at first tried recording using a drum machine but was dissatisfied with the results. Christopher Valentine then contacted the band and joined on as the new drummer.[6] The band recorded and released their debut album, Skin Stripper, in 1998, before going on hiatus for the first time after first Valentine and then Hamilton left the band.[3][6] Green also co-founded the deathgrind band Excarnated that same year.[8] The music on Skin Stripper was compared to the early output of Carcass.[3] In December 2001, Green moved to Minnesota and married Maria, who became the band's bassist, and hired on Ziggy Peters and Johnathan Kellerman on vocals.[3][9] The band signed to Morbid Records, which re-released Skin Stripper on July 29, 2002.[3][10] The band alleges that they never received any sales money from this re-release.[6] During this time, demo tracks were recorded for a new album, Insalubrious Collagery Of Pernicious Sepsis Infestation,[6] scheduled to be released on June 24, 2002,[9] later delayed to 2003.[10] Alleging that Morbid was pressuring the band to abandon its Christian lyrical focus, the band left the label.[3] Due to lack of a drummer, the band went on a second hiatus.[6] In August 2006, having moved back to Australia, Green started the band back up with Hamilton and Valentine.[3] Karrionic Hacktician was released as a stand-alone recording with two demo tracks from 2002 included.[11] Vomitorial Corpulence began recording new songs for a new album, Crucified, but the release was continually delayed due to Green continually missing practice sessions due to his work commitments.[6] Valentine then reached out to four Christian goregrind artists — Flactorophia, Demonic Dismemberment, Eternal Mystery, and Vomitous Discharge — who were collaborating on a split-album.[12] Valentine helped finalize the album, invited a sixth artist, Engravor, to join the project, and financed most of the CD pressing.[12] The final product, 6-Way Sin Decomposition Split, was released in 2007 on Christ Core Records and Vomit Bucket Recordings.[13] After no further activity from its members, the band officially broke up in April 2008.[6]
