Rigor Mortis

Rigor Mortis is a thrash/speed metal band that formed in 1983. Two schoolmates Harden Harrison (drums) and Casey Orr (bass) formed the band when they met Mike Scaccia (guitar). The three young men shared an interest in horror/gore films and very heavy music. With Bruce Corbitt on vocals they created some of the heaviest thrash metal at the time often flirting with death metal. They were also one of the only major thrash bands from Texas and virtually created the underground metal scene there. The band was signed by Capitol Records in 1987. The original lineup reunited in 2005. Recently they performed at the one day Ozzfest 2008 in Texas, playing on the Texas stage. The band continues to reunite from time to time to play select shows
