Additional notes
Former members went on to form Misery Index and separately Criminal Element.

This band gets a lot of criticism by hard line death metal fans who accuse them of having rap influences because John Gallagher has allegedly said he likes rap more than some metal in several interviews.

Obviously, John Gallagher is not the same John Gallagher of Raven (Gbr).
