Stigmata (28)

Stigmata was Travis Ryan (Cattle Decapitation) and Ben Marlin's (Disgorge) Death/Thrash Metal band in high school. The entire band hailed from Escondido, California. Stigmata changed members from Ricardo Ginese to Jean Bergeron before adding Diego Sanchez (Disgorge) and becoming Strangulation in late 1993 which saw the band going in a more brutal death metal direction. Stigmata recorded only one demo tape entitled "Walking In Darkness" and played handfuls of local shows.
