history

Mick Harris, drummer for Napalm Death and Mitch Harris, guitarist for Righteous Pigs , met in Las Vegas in the summer of 1987 . The musicians who were not related to each other had already had correspondence beforehand. Within two weeks in the spring of 1989, a full album was written and recorded from March 6-8, 1989 in Worcester , England . It was produced by Danny Lilker and released shortly afterwards by Nuclear Blast . In 1990, Mitch Harris moved from the Righteous Pigs to Napalm Death, who were under contract with Earache Records . Although the duo had already written the second album Intention Surpassed for Nuclear Blast, they were contractually bound to Earache. Since Nuclear Blast had already paid an advance for the second album, it could not be released on Earache. To avoid disputes, Mick Harris left the project in 1991 and Mitch Harris started his side project Meathook Seed in 1992 . Some of the songs already written were used on Utopia Banished by Napalm Death.

After Napalm Death fulfilled his contract with Earache, Mitch Harris was able to record the second album with the help of producer Russ Russell. Some of the songs came from the songwriting for the second album, which was not released, while Harris rewrote some. The process was delayed by the simultaneous recordings for the napalm death album Order of the Leech . In August 2003, Nuclear Blast released the second and so far last album of the project. In retrospect, Harris described it as a mistake to record a second album, it should have been left with the one classic Purity Dilution .
