Cursed was formed in 2001, by Chris Colohan, Mike Maxymuik, and Christian McMaster, a year after the break-up of their previous band, The Swarm aka Knee Deep in the Dead. They were joined by bassist Radwan Ghazi Moumneh , formerly vocalist in the Quebec Arabian-influenced hardcore band Ire. The band quickly became known for its nihilistic and dystopian lyrical themes, stark classic horror imagery and loud, abrasive live shows. In 2003, they released their debut album on Deathwish Inc. , which garnered wide cult support. Moumneh switched to second guitar, allowing bassist Tom Piraino to join the lineup; Piraino and McMaster had previously played in the band Funerary together.
