Cursed For Eternity was formed in June 1994 by Mike (vox/guitar), Pat guitar), and Jeff (drums).
After covering Slayer, Mayhem and other influential bands for a short time,
Josh joined on bass and the band began writing its own material.
Josh then left shortly before their demo was recorded to focus on his drumming in his other band, Destro
leaving Mike to handle the bass tracks.
In August of 1997, the band recorded on a four track five songs that that included on their first demo entitled "Cold Reality". The demo received favorable reviews in several metal 'zines and around 200 copies were sold.
Jay filled in on bass for shows and ended up joining the band to begin work 
in August of 1998
 on their second demo "Beyond The Unbound" that was released in August of 1999.
The songs on this demo are much more complex and experimental, yet the brutality increased as well.
Cursed For Eternity eventually disbanded in November 1999.
Mike, Jeff and Jay moved on to form Hirudinea and also are participating in bands like Embryonic Cryptopathia,
Cruentation, Impenitent Thief and Mucophagus while Pat and Josh formed the band Gutter.
