Mütiilation, one of the main representatives of the French underground Black Metal, is born during year 1991 in Montpellier around Jean-Luc, Meyhnach and David, respectively drummer, singer/guitar player, bass player.
Just after the release of their first demo, "Rites Through the Twilight of Hell " in 1992, the band is rapidly under the aegis of Black Legions. The music of Mütiilation is extremely black and tortured, with also some strange atmosphere. After the release of the maxi "Hail Sathanas, we are the Black Legions" in 1993, Jean-Luc and David leave the band. Jean-Luc is replaced by Kriss, the bass is put aside for a while. For the following release the band signs with Warmaster productions to give birth to its first album, ' Evil - the gestalt of loathing ' which will finally never come out to life.
During year 1995, Kriss leaves Mütiilation, claiming to be scared by the events and the drastically dark orientation of music. Mørdrëd takes the vacant post of bass player and the band will keep the drums tracks of Kriss for the recording of its first album "Vampires of black imperial blood" released in 1996 on Drakkar Production. Mørdrëd finally leaves the band shortly afterwards.
In 1999, Mütiilation releases a new album "Remains of a Ruined, Dead, Cursed Soul", which is more a compilation of unreleased pieces that an proper album, containing besides the titles of their unreleased disc of 1993 as well as two titles dating from a recording session of 1997. This album was supposed to announce the death of Mütiilation and its world 'its reluctance for orientation of the black metal scene'.
In 2001, Meyhnach, alone and determined, decides to re-form Mütiilation to show to the world that Black did not die (see the text of ''Black Millenium (Grimly Reborn)'' third album of the band released this year there). At this time Mütiilation wants to strike back and do things big definitely assuming its condition of solo project.
The band played two shows in 2001, one in Marseille and one at Under the Black Sun Festival in Germendorf. Both were bootlegged by Wargeist Productions under the title Desecrate Jesus' Name (CD + DVD, in DVD case), limited to 100 handnumbered copies with no extras.
Out in 2003, ''Majestas Leprosus'' , fourth official album, certainly the darkest of all career of Mütiilation.
Despite the one-shot live performance at the Hellfest (France) 2015 that saw Mütiilation rise again, Meyhna'ch declared fall 2017 this project to be "definitely dead".
