Unseen Terror

---|
Unseen Terror was a British extreme metal band formed by Shane Embury (later of Napalm Death) and Mitch Dickinson (Heresy) with the intent of playing extreme metal with a technical edge.[1] The band name is taken from early grindcore band S.O.B.'s song of the same name.
In March of 1988, they recorded tracks for an airing of John Peel's BBC Radio 1 program.
History
The short-lived group was founded in 1987 by drummer Shane Embury and singer/guitarist Mitch Dickinson. They were later joined by Pete Giles (Warhammer, Harmony as One, Scalplock) on bass.
After contributing two tracks to the collection 'Diminished Responsibility', the group landed a record contract at Earache Records. The album 'Human Error' was recorded in September 1987.
After their debut-album, Napalm Death drummer Mick Harris joined the band as singer. By then, Giles had left the group. The band organised a recording session for radio legend John Peel, and a one-off performance in Nottingham with bassist Wayne Aston.
The group came to an end after this. Embury became a fulltime bassist for Napalm Death and Dickinson became guitarist for the band Heresy.
