Horrified is the only full-length album released by the American death metal band Repulsion. This album was influential on later goregrind bands. Although the album was originally recorded in 1986, it remained unreleased until three years later. It was originally released on Necrosis Records, a sublabel of Earache Records.

Album information

The album was originally released in 1986 as a demo called Slaughter of the Innocent. Necrosis officially released the album as Horrified in 1989. The tracks were recorded in June 1986 at a basement studio in Flint, Michigan. They were then remixed in March 1989 at Silver Tortoise Soundlab, Ann Arbor, Michigan by Jonas Berzanskis, Scott Carlson and Aaron Freeman, and produced by Doug Earp and Repulsion.

In 1991, Repulsion got back together and recorded a demo titled Rebirth, some of which appeared on the Excruciation 7" released through Relapse Records. After the success of the 7", Relapse reissued Horrified in 1992. In 2002, Horrified was reissued again by Relapse, this time with a bonus CD consisting of various demos and other recordings titled Rarities.
