Band biography Upload photo
Mayhem was an American heavy / speed metal band from Portland, Oregon, that formed in 1983. With original singer Nick Damis the band was featured on the "Metal Massacre VI" compilation in 1985 with the track "Tear Down The Walls". He was then replaced by former Wild Dogs vocalist Matt McCourt who appeared on their album in 1988 which was released by the French label Black Dragon Records. Mayhem also got to support some high profile bands like King Diamond and Megadeth. Matt McCourt apparently auditioned to be the new Judas Priest singer in 1993 but did not succeed. He then formed his own Judas Priest cover band called British Steel before reforming Wild Dogs once more.
