Birthed in the mists of the early 1990’s as Plague Bearer in the isolated and miniscule Death Metal underground emerging in Seattle, Drawn And Quartered would explode upon the unsuspecting scene with their debut demo and furious live performances in 1996. The iconic debut release “To Kill Is Human” emerged in 1998, self-released prior to its later reissue by Moribund Records. Two US tours followed, but it would not be until 2002 that a follow-up release would finally arrive with “Extermination Revelry”, which began to showcase a more sinister approach than before.
Three subsequent releases via the Moribund Cult followed in relatively quick succession, including the landmark “Hail Infernal Darkness” in 2006. After the 2010 release of their sixth album “Feeding Hell’s Furnace” on Nuclear Winter Records, and live performances in New York and Texas, Drawn and Quartered was forced to regroup following a line-up change. It would be 2012 when they reappeared with the “Proliferation of Disease” demo. Two albums would follow via Krucyator Productions, including the previous full-length “Congregation Pestilence” in 2022, which was followed by a successful US tour and Drawn And Quartered’s second European appearance.
Their ninth full-length studio recording, “Lord of Two Horns”, was released in June 2025 by Nuclear Winter Records. “Lord of Two Horns” sees Drawn And Quartered deliver their signature early-90s-influenced Death Metal darkness with more speed and brutality than ever before.
Drawn And Quartered’s current line up is Kelly Shane Kuciemba, lead & rhythm guitars; Herb Burke, bass guitar & vocals, Simon Dorfman, drums & percussion, and Brandon Corsair, guitar.
