Regarding the band's name, Pete Helmkamp stated in an interview; "We put it as two words on the demo, so Osmose learned it that way. But that was just a mistake at the printers...It was one of those flukes. But it is just a single word... It just seems to look more visually pleasing as a single word. It fits with the phonetics: we say 'Angelcorpse', not 'Angel Corpse'."
During 2004 Angelcorpse would donate their rendition of "Burning In Hell" to the "Seven Gates Of Horror" tribute album assembled by the Dutch Karmaggedon Media label in homage to pioneering Bay Area Thrash act Possessed. | | Buy their stuff | Buy from The End Records
