Detestation

There are two bands who share the name Detestation. An American anarcho-punk/crust band with female vocals from Portland, OR, and an American brutal death metal band from New Mexico.

Detestation is the name of one of the best death metal bands in the underground. Drawing from influences such as Cannibal Corpse and Broken Hope, these guys innovate their own styles into a fusion of death, speed, grinding gore with a dash of industrialized cybermetal. Filling concert halls and selling records, Detestation is doing both with a style unbecoming of such a small underground band.
The band got started in 1994, after the release of Tommy T's (from Diverje, in-FUSED, No Escape) Detest - "Of Society" album, which was a big project album with all Tommy T and help from a lot of friends. Some hardcore songs were on side 2, with bass by Steve-O and drums by his brother Todd-O (of Abaddon). Dave from the Grave (of Malignant Horde) started hanging out and adding some crunching guitarwork, and soon they were all writing songs and jamming together. After a few months of writing, re-writing, recording, and mixing, they had put together the album "Massacre Of Hate".
