Ascended Dead is an American death metal band, known for their ferocious blend of fast-paced, chaotic riffs and an atmosphere steeped in macabre extremity. Emerging from the San Diego underground metal scene, the group has established itself with a relentless commitment to the aggressive fundamentals of the genre, harnessing both technical prowess and a relentless drive that pays homage to the old-school sensibilities.

Since their formation, Ascended Dead have cultivated a dedicated following through a series of intense releases and their reputation for energetic and uncompromising live performances. Their 2017 full-length debut, "Abhorrent Manifestation," earned acclaim for capturing the raw intensity of their sound, characterized by a visceral amalgamation of blistering speed, intricate guitar work, and grimy, guttural vocals. This momentum continued with a series of gut-punching tracks including "Evenfall Of The Apocalypse" and "Inverted Ascension," further entrenching their status in the metal underground. Their collaborations, such as the "Ascended Dead / Atomicide Split," have showcased their ability to stand alongside other acts in the extreme metal scene, while "Ungodly Death" is another testament to the band’s unyielding sonic assault that marks them as a relentless force within the contemporary death metal landscape.
