History
Disembowelment, stylized as diSEMBOWELMENT, is a Australian death doom metal band from Melbourne, Australia that was formed in November 1989 out of the ashes of two-piece grindcore band Bacteria, featuring drummer Paul Mazziotta and guitarist/vocalist Renato Gallina. With the help of Dean Ruprich from Melbourne death/grind band Necrotomy providing session bass, the band released its first demo, Mourning September, in September 1990.
diSEMBOWELMENT played a very slow form of doom metal (with occasional bursts of great speed) that relied equally on the atmospheric effects of droning guitars and constant riffing. The band was known for its atmospheric chanting, slow riffs and spiritual dark elements present in their symphonic, heavily distorted style. They are often credited with spawning the funeral doom movement that developed years later.
