Artist History The band formed in 1988 after Donald & Brad left Miscarriage. Dustin was formerly in Scatterbrains and Dave had not played in any other bands. After touring around the Southeast USA, they grew tired of the grind and each member pursued interests away from Afterbirth. Brad was later murdered in a still mysterious cloud of circumstances. Donald joined Humanicide for a while during an Afterbirth hiatus. Later, he released two projects, one was titled "Grudgefuck" which had him playing all instruments and the second was titled "Tree" in which he worked with Jazz, Blues and Pop musicians to do something "different". Dustin became lead singer of Cracker Gun and devoted much of his time to his artwork. Dave is a production guru at a popular television station.
