== History ==
Abhorrence was formed in early 1989 by guitarists [[Tomi Koivusaari]] (of [[Violent Solution]]) and Kalle Mattsson, vocalist Jukka Kolehmainen and bassist Jussi Ahlroth (who had played in a band called ''Disaster''), as well as drummer Kimmo Heikkinen. For some time they played under several different names until settling on Abhorrence, playing dozens of concerts alongside bands like [[Xysma]] and [[Funebre]]. After recording and releasing one demo tape, titled ''Vulgar Necrolatry'', they released a 7" EP on Seraphic Decay Records. Without a written contract of any kind, the band lost all of the master tapes and possible future revenues.

After several more gigs around Finland, a short visit to Norway (one gig and a party/sleepover at [[black metal]] band [[Mayhem|Mayhem's]] house) with their second drummer Mika Arnkil (on leave from [[Antidote]]), the band broke up in 1990, but reunited in 2012. Koivusaari went on to play in [[Amorphis]].
