ACROSTICHON - LOST REMEMBRANCE [SCAM 013] Recorded JAnuary 12th - January 13th 1990 at the Oscar Holleman studio. Produced by Robin, Oscar and Acrostichon
HISTORY Acrostichon from Tilburg, Holland was formed in August 1989 when Jos (guitar), Richard (guitar), Corinne (vocals) and Vincent (drums). In those days Acrostichon played some songs of Richard's old project: United Brains, and the first Acrostichon songs were written ("Xenophobic mania", "Immolation of the agnostic", and "elaborate ritual").
In November 1989 Vincent was replaced by Roeland and in this lineup Acrostichon played their first gigs. In March 1990 Acrostichon recorded their "Prologue" demo which contained the songs "Immolation of the agnostic", "Havoc", "Mentally deficient" and "Elaborate ritual". The demo got great reviews and the band sold about 500 copies of it. The demo also made it possible to do more and bigger gigs. The biggest one was with Carcass, Hellbastard and Gorefest.
In June 1990 Serge replaced Roeland, and in this lineup the second demo "Dehumanized" was recorded. This tape contained four new tracks, called "Dehumanized", "Thriving on chaos", Exasperation" and "Lost remembrance". This demo was the final breakthrough in the Dutch underground scene. More than 1000 copies were sold. Songs of the demo were featured on the "Where is your god now" LP published by D.S.F.A. Promotions. Also the 'Lost Remembranc'e 7" was released by Seraphic Decay Records. After that Acrostichon signed Modern Primitive Records.
In March 1992 Acrostichon recorded their debut album, "Engraved in Black", with producer Colin Richardson. The album was released in early of 1993...
