Purgatory is an Indonesian metal band, formed in 1991. The band started out originally as a death metal group heavily influenced by Obituary, but switched to a nu metal sound reminiscent of bands like Nothingface and Mudvayne by the time they began writing the second album. Purgatory also began wearing outfits and masks around this time. History Purgatory was formed by Hendrie (bass/vocals), Lutfie (guitar), AL (Drums), and Arief (guitars) as a death metal band. In the beginning they formed this band without any serious intent. There is no exact date of their formation, but it's confirmed to have been about 1991. They used to always sang the songs of Obituary and Sepultura. The name purgatory itself was inspired from a horror movie namely A Nightmare on Elm Street. There was a scene in the movie that displays the arrow that bear the word 'PURGATORY'. This later inspired L.T.F. and his little brother Al to use the name 'PURGATORY' as the name of their band. The band released their first release, Abyss Call in 1995. The EP was later followed with the release of a compilation album by Rotocorp Records, namely Metalik Klinik I, wherein Purgatory contributed their song "Sakaratul Maut".
