Catholic Crusader​ Nope. Chuck Shuldiner was influenced by influenced by Metallica and Slayer. Without Dave in Metallica, they wouldn't have that thrash sound. Then Kerry King was temporarily in Megadeth and Dave taught Kerry some of his guitar skills. Mantas wasn't the first to play fast aggressive music buddy.

[@simonegiannini2421]

Thousands of comments about who "invented" Death Metal first...tape trading was a big thing back in the 80's, so basically bands from all around the USA had the chance to listen to each other and be mutually influenced. Death Metal was a necessity, it was a process, it basically created itself thanks to bands sharing their tapes and saying: "hey, we gotta be havier and faster than them!"

[@lelemap2200]

All around the world*, especially Europe (more for BM than DM though). All of them obviously taking influences from brits like Venom and such. And none of them would've existed without the innovations of Judas Priest. Also Mercyful Fate being traditional metal but putting new elements into the game, etc. Parabellum, Sodom, Bathory (BM but also bringin up some DM elements). Extreme metal is universal, get out of your chauvinistic bubble, US is only a little part of all of that culture and was only actually relevant for DM (speaking of actual musical evolution, obviously US bands tend to be more popular), not for other forms of Extreme Metal whatsoever, and that was mainly because of Death. Because yes, all of them influenced each other but Possessed and others didn't manage to make this full transition to DM, all of them still had that thrash atmosphere just yet. Of cuorse the invention was a universal, step-by-step process, but Chuck was undoubtedly one of the most revolutionary eventhough, as you pointed out, cannot be as easily named as "the inventor".

Dude, Did you know the concept of "inventing": is create from the pile of existing information registered of our history as human kind?. Our capacities for creating something with the master way of turning the point of transformation with the highest form of systhesis is the way.. we believe "still" believing in the "Unique master piece Idea". If you want to find the founding mother or father of creation go to a religion center ( there it will start of a whole big ass confussion I don't recommend, cause it will be according to the certain part of the world on which serendipity if (you wanna call it like that). let you born. CHUCK SCHULDINER is the founding father of that type of extreme metal call Death Metal. but if you ask him. He said Venom..because of the technical factors he explained ( turning low theire instruments and over all that inicial brutal agression) but the people of year factors know ..Venom was the bridge for the creation of extreme metal. Hail Chuck!.

It analyses the rise and fall of death and grind metal, based on interviews with the main protagonists of bands from '80's to early 2000's

[@williamlane6124]

Thrash was already established and "big" by 1984.

[@7dayspking]

***** You're so wrong it's almost farcical. Speed metal was around in the mid 70s (fuck Queen were even playing it in 74.).......Thrash metal on the other hand Started with Venom and Holy Moses in 80, 81.......and certainly was well established by 1982. I can't believe you're suggesting there wasn't any thrash in 83.....in 83 there were a shit tonne of Thrash records......Thrash metal had well and truly kicked off then (although again was first played in 80, 81.) The most ironic part of it is that CRUST-PUNK which DERIVED FROM THRASH.....was around in 82......displaying just how wrong you truly are. Look at Sodom and Hellhammer's first demos...as well as bands like Amebix and Doom (there are so many others, it's not even funny.) To display just how big Speed metal was....listen to Joy Division's song 'Warsaw' in 1978......It's a punk song and sounds like a rip off of Speed metal (Joy Division were very influential on Gothic rock as well as Hardcore punk.)

[@kakstin]

+Μιχάλης Μακρής Right, Metallica's and even Slayer's debut albums from '83 weren't quite full-blown thrash, though 'Ride the Lightning' and 'Haunting the Chapel' the following year certainly were. Sacrilege's first demo (also from '84) was an early example of both thrash metal and crust punk, ahead of its time for sure. As far as distinguishing thrash from speed metal, compare any of the preceding to something like Exciter's 'Heavy Metal Maniac,' or even 'Ace of Spades'/'Iron Fist'-era Motorhead.

[@7dayspking]

Jimmy Calhoun AHhh, Slayer's first album was essentially Thrash.....Venom's earliest material was Thrash (3 years earlier.) Sodom's first demo was full blown Crust Punk (1982.) and Holy Moses 1980, 1981 and 1982 demos had examples of Thrash AND Crust Punk on them. Possessed's first demo also had Crusty material on it (as well as steps towards Death metal...their album 'seven churches' was basically just their demo material anyway.) Motorhead weren't really Speed metal...they were more likey bluesy Hardcore punk hahaha (their earlier material was essentially proto-hardcore.) Iron Maiden are closer to Speed metal than Motorhead. bands like Exciter are of course Speed metal though. I suggest you check out 'Razor' hahaha!

[@7dayspking]

***** Why is it stupid because your average layman labels them differently? If you knew what hardcore punk was you mightn't be reacting like a twit. Listen to Minor Threat, Discharge, Black Flag, Agent Orange and Youth Brigade and then listen to Motorhead's self-titled again....it'll come to you. Motorhead's material is often suggested to be nothing more than a rip off of "Iggy and the stooges" material by many (Iggy and the stooges are a punk band...."I got a right".)

[@andbeniou3319]

The First Wave of Death Metal: History: (1983-1990) Death Metal can find its roots way back in the heavy metal hay day of the 1980's. (Take note that the first wave of death metal lasted from 1983-1990.) Influenced greatly by thrash metal bands such as Slayer and Kreator, death metal emerged when a few people scattered across the states took the fast, aggressive thrash metal sound, signature of Slayer and Kreator, and decided to pour on an extra supply of brutality. It is not known for certain which band invented death metal, but research and deduction have reduced the list down to three key bands: Florida's very own Death (Death was originally known as Mantas back when they formed), California-borne group Possessed, and the Illinois based band Master; all three bands formed back in 1983.

A second version soon after added the song Power of Darkness and rearranged the order. But this third version of the demo was released under the band name "Death".

For all of you new-school metal kids arguing about who invented death metal, Slayer set the template with their song "Chemical Warfare - super-fast tremelo-picked "bee swarm" riffs, guttural vocals, and faster drumming than had ever been heard before, not to mention lyrics about Satan, demons, death and destruction. Then Possessed came along, and were obviously heavily influenced by Slayer musically, lyrically, and visually - they even had studded upside-down crosses on their guitar straps, etc

@@rubens9890 have you figured it out yet, six feet under LIFTED, meaning TOOK, the verse riff...

I didn't remember this was so heavy and extreme. Death metal very well was a thing back in 1984 already.

That's not Chuck , is Kam Lee

alexander acosta Chuck sings in Power of Darkness. But yes, Kam Lee sings the rest of it.

[@a.od-reszki4674]

Rick Rozz said Chuck on vocals also on beyond the unholy grave

[@a.od-reszki4674]

I also think beyond the unholy grave vocals doesn't sound like Chuck, but Rick Rozz played on this demo...

[@dextervortexsungte5348]

"kam lee" is an asian (his future band massacre) was the first deep guttural vocal

This demo is pure violence, in Legion of doom hellhammer resounds, and the voice of Kam Lee is fucking great.

The great question: which is the first death metal band: Death or Possessed?? 1984 was also the year that Possessed released their amazing Death Metal demo!!

[@jeppyjep]

Its safe to say that they both are among the first. Both of them are fuckin awesome

[@machinehl]

i'd say it's Death, possesed were still thrash in their demo.

[@ARG0T]

Possessed is thrash lol

[@plciferpffer3048]

But Possessed was the first death metal band? Not so sure...

[@childintime6453]

So Chuck was not the vocalist back then

[@miguelrivoch]

No, he started doing vocals on the Infernal Death demo tape from 1985.

[@rickrozz2439]

Chuck vocals on tracks 3 and 4. Cheers & Peace.

Holy shit is Rick. Thanks, I didn't know that.

[@robertzelic5794]

i think kam lee did the vocals
