Fit for an Autopsy is an American deathcore band from Jersey City, New Jersey, formed in 2008. The band consists of guitarists Will Putney, Pat Sheridan and Tim Howley, drummer Josean Orta, vocalist Joe Badolato, and bassist Peter "Blue" Spinazola. Fit for an Autopsy is currently signed to Nuclear Blast Records[1] and has released four studio albums since formation.

History

The band released their first demo in 2008, followed a year later by the group's first EP, Hell on Earth.[2] In 2011, Fit for an Autopsy released their first full-length LP, The Process of Human Extermination.[3][4]

In September 2013, the band released their second album, Hellbound.[1] Less than a year later, in April 2014, the band announced that vocalist Nate Johnson would be leaving the band. Greg Wilburn of the Devastated was immediately named as Johnson's temporary replacement.[5]

As of early 2015, the band has announced the departure of Greg Wilburn and their new vocalist, Joe Badolato. Along with this, they have announced that they are in the writing process for a new album. This third album, named Absolute Hope Absolute Hell, was released on October 2, 2015.[6]

In July 2016, the band has announced a split-album, named The Depression Sessions with fellow deathcore bands, Thy Art Is Murder and The Acacia Strain. The EP was released on August 12, 2016.[7]

The band released a new song, "Heads Will Hang," from their upcoming fourth studio album "The Great Collapse" on January 31, 2017. The album was released on March 17, 2017.[8] On May 8th 2018 Fit For An Autopsy announced they signed with Nuclear Blast
