Muhammed Suiçmez Putrefaction" was released on Noise Solution Records (1999). Following the breakup of Necrophagist, Suiçmez currently works as an engineer at BMW.

For most Necrophagist recordings Suiçmez is tuned in D standard (ADGCFAD for seven strings, DGCFAD otherwise). Suiçmez also had a 27 fret 7 string custom Ibanez, as seen on photos on his band's MySpace, but it was ruined when someone mishandled it backstage after a show.
