Additional Notes
In 2009, Pathogen's "Blasphemous Communion" was under scrutiny during its re-release phase. Apparently the band accepted re-releases from both Dead Center Productions (Ukraine) and Old Cemetery Records (US). Both versions were released, promoted, and designed at the expense of the labels and both versions are now looked at as "rip-off releases" from both labels.
Pathogen's Willie Desamero insists that Dead Center Productions' version is a bootleg, though it is proven through the art that was initially created for the OCR version ending up as the art for the DCP version which was released first.
Contributed to the Maldit6 Sign6 Malign6 compilation by Nexus Innspillinger on limited cassette with the track Shroud Of Silent Death.
Played a Tribute concert for Chris Witchhunter in August 2012 together with Tenebrion, Göblïn Wärhëäd, Paganfire, Corrupt Insanity...among others.
Not to be confuse with:
Pathogen (AU) - Melodic Death Metal from Perth, Western Australia, Australia
Pathogen (GB) - Death Metal from Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom
