The Accüsed

is a Seattle-based crossover thrash band formed in 1981, known for blending hardcore punk and thrash metal with horror-themed lyrics. They pioneered the "splattercore" genre, combining aggressive riffs with dark, humorous storytelling. Albums like 'The Return of Martha Splatterhead' (1986) showcase their fast, chaotic sound. The Accüsed remains influential in both the thrash and hardcore punk scenes for their unique style and intensity.
