Archive material and source history
Decay formed in London with Emily Carter on vocals, Ethan James on guitar, Luke Thompson on bass, and James Wilson on drums. Their debut album 'The Crumbling Years' came out in 1997, featuring the song 'Left Behind' which became their most recognizable track.
Carter's lyrics often drew from personal struggles, giving their music a raw edge that connected with listeners. While their sound drew some comparisons to bands like Radiohead and Portishead, Decay maintained a distinct presence with Carter's emotive vocals and James's atmospheric guitar work.
Other songs in their catalog include 'Brutally Butchered Carcass' and 'Colonize The Inhumed,' showing a consistent approach to their material. They worked from a rehearsal space in London's industrial outskirts during their early years.
