Defleshed is a Swedish band known for its combination of death metal and thrash metal, established by guitarist Lars Löfven, who previously played with Convulsion and Inanimate. Shortly after their initial demo session, bassist Gustaf Jorde, formerly of Crematorium, became a member. In 1995, drummer Matte Modin joined the lineup. The group issued several albums through well-known metal record labels before officially disbanding in November 2005. Additionally, they maintained a side project called Vargavinter.
The band reunited in January 2021 and started creating new music. By July 2022, they had secured a contract with Metal Blade Records and revealed plans to release Grind Over Matter on October 28, marking their first studio album in 17 years.
