Fleshcrawl, formerly Morgöth, was forged in by Bastian Herzog and Stefan Hanus, who wanted to direct their musical styles into more extreme, more brutal forms. Originally, they had renamed themselves Suffocation, and released a demo cd in 1990 called "Festering Flesh," but were forced to change their because the up-and-coming American band Suffocation, who had released their first vinyl cut earlier that year. Comprised of Alex Pretzer (vocals), Stefan Hanus (guitars), Alfred Handke (guitars), Markus Amann (bass guitar) and Bastian Herzog (drums), Fleshcrawl was born and signed onto Morbid Records, and released a 7" EP entitled "Lost In A Grave."
