Tribute to Death

Death Origin: Florida, USA One of the true founders of death metal (though I maintain that Possessed had a similar sound earlier) with their first three albums being enormously influential landmarks in the field. With the release of Individual Thought Patterns, however, saw a dramatic shift in style, moving towards an intense progressive/thrash/death sound, which has continued to evolve over the last several years. Founder Chuck Schuldiner disbanded the band in 1996, dissatisfied with his own vocals (he wished to blend Death music with a more conventional metal vocalist). The Control Denied project was born, but was shelved after a time, with Chuck taking some ideas (and members) and reforming Death for the 1998 Sound Of Perseverence release. That proved to be the last album under that name, as the Control Denied name was revived, and is now the true continuation of Death (it's unlikely that the band will record under the Death name again).
