The ULTIMATE FAN PROFILE on MySpace!
Created by Mr. Martin Splatterhead + approved by The Accused
A Brief History of The Accused (1981-Present):
In 1981, three bored teenagers from Whidbey Island, Washington: Chewy, Dana & Tom,
formed a punk rock band, called 'The Accüsed'. The
isolated locale was both inspiring and maddening. There's U.S. Navy base on the North end-- llama farmers and well-to-do Summer Home owners to the south. Not exactly a poplulace of folks embracing punk rock or the lifestyle it breeds;
They longed for experiencing the punk scene Seattle was offering. In 1982 John Dahlin joined the tio to become Vocalist ; a big turning point for The Accused
for suddenly the music they made was getting noticed.
As each member saw their 18th birthday finally arrive, like Alcatrazz-jailbirds, the antsy teens left the island behind and turned their sights on the mainland;
In 1983, they entered their first 'real' recording studio to record
a split 12" L.P; with Burien, Washington punk
icons' REJECTORS.
The ACCUSED have recorded 10 albums ('official' and otherwise);
traveling through 49 U.S. States; visiting 20+ countries;
being in EVERY major heavy metal/hard rock/punk rock
magazine and fanzine that would listen; creating a band mascot
'Martha Splatterhead' who, among other things, made
VICE Magazine's 'Top Ten Metal Mascots of All Time'!!;
Inspired a 12-band 'Accused Tribute' record (Transparent Records-double-7 inch) AND
created their own musical genre: 'Splatter Rock' !
--- a musical mash
of bloody, carnage-laden horror, marinated in a broth
of metal and hardcore punk, simmering in a stew of un-thinkable
brutality and eye-popping gore. Lyrically, they generally fixate on
quick and painful revenge served upon those deserving of it
and are obsessed with the viceral and varied ways
their long-time mascot,
Martha Splatterhead, will bring dirtbags to justice for them.
----------------PRESENT:------------------
As 2010 approaches, The Accused remain atop their throne as KINGS of SPLATTER; Their new 14-song CD is OUT NOW, titled "The Curse of Martha Splatterhead", on Southern Lord Records
an album of music so thrashingly-cadaver-crushing, it's almost boiling over from blood-heavy tales of violent painful death being dealt to the deserved ones on a lengthy list of folks The Accused and Martha SPlatterhead want erased; See their calendar for current show dates, etc.
