Dr. Shrinker is a death metal group originating from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in the United States, established in October 1987. While initially remaining relatively unknown, the band achieved greater prominence following the release of a split EP with Nunslaughter and a compilation CD issued in 2004 by Necroharmonic Productions. Tony Brandt, Scott McKillop, and Matt Grassberger, members of Dr. Shrinker, were also part of Phantasm, which produced the album The Abominable. The band ceased activity by January 1991 after four years but reunited in January 2013.
The demo titled The Eponym was overseen by producer Eric Greif.
