Mentally Murdered is an EP by the English grindcore band Napalm Death, released in 1989.[3] It was later included on the Harmony Corruption CD and the Death by Manipulation compilation album.[4] On this EP the band's migration to death metal territory is more readily evident than on its previous album. It is the final studio recording with Bill Steer and Lee Dorrian, who simultaneously departed the band due to musical and personality differences.
