Xysma, whose name means "membranous shreds in the faeces", was the first Finnish grindcore band.
Starting off as goregrind Xysma quickly moved away from extreme metal and then evolved into a stylistic mix of 70's heavy rock in the vein of Black Sabbath and death metal. Then they changed their style again into pure retro rock and finally into pop.
They split up in 1998, but after Thee Stranius's death in 2006, the band reunited for one gig in September 2006.
