Musically influenced by [[Mortification]], '''Deliverence''' and [[Paramaecium]], Grave Forsaken is an evangelistic Christian thrash metal band, with death and doom influences, from Perth.


The band has completed the album ''Destined for Ascension'' that is due for release in early 2008.
The 2005 EP release is the previous year’s demo with an extra track. 2006 saw the band's debut album, ''Besides the River of Blood'', released at the Black Stump festival in NSW. In 2007, they released a doom influenced single, ''Horror and Sadness'', which contained several bonus tracks. They were working with a new producer, Dan Holmes ([[Templar]], [[Scourged Flesh]]), and the quality of the recordings greatly improved with his help. In early 2008, ''Destined For Ascension'' was unleashed, further solidifying Grave Forsaken's old-school thrash sound. Drummer Kilgallon joined '''Mortification''' in 2008 but remained only a short time. Grave Forsaken has been a productive band, with their output now totalling four studio albums and the live set '''Light the Hall'''.
