Morbid Angel
Another Tampa-based, Morbid Angel, formed in 1983 and, like Nasty Savage, garnered attention for its gruesome stage antics. Morbid Angel recorded a full-length album, "Abominations of Desolation", in 1986, but did not release it as the group was dissatisfied with the results. After Pete Sandoval from the California grindcore band Terrorizer joined Morbid Angel, the band finally released its debut album, "Altars of Madness", in 1989.
