Dispatched are a Swedish melodic death metal band from Södertälje (originally from the Gnesta Municipality) formed in 1992.
One year later, Dispatched returned to the Unisound studio to record a whole eleven-song album, which was supposed to be released in full by Exhumed Productions in Germany.
Lundberg and Larsson continued to rehearse and after the summer they found a new drummer, Mattias Hellman and keyboardist/vocalist Fredrik Karlsson.
Nilsson became a full member of the band and a second guitar player, Emil Larsson, joined as well in the beginning of 1998.
Dispatched signed a one-MCD deal with Kshatryas Productions of Germany, and released Promised Land in late 1998.
The band continued to write songs and do some live shows, but in late 2002, members of Dispatched decided to break up.
