Their debut album, 1987's "Scream Bloody Gore", is considered by many to be the first death metal album by the people that aren't calling either Seven Churches or Necrophagia's debut the first death metal release. Started off named "Mantas" before changing their name to Death, and released several thrashy demos in between 1983 and their first album in 1987, with the most notable of the demos being the "Death By Metal" tape. Recommended listening: Unreleased 1985 Album (2003), Master (1990)ĭeath (Altamonte Springs, Florida): Another early influential band that sometimes gets credit for naming the genre. Notable also for heavy overlap with legendary death metal band Death Strike's debut, with Fuckin' Death sharing many songs with early Master material due to Mittleburn and Speckman's involvement in each. They had a punishing album recorded as of 1985 but that was shelved due to conflicts with their record label (though it was still heavily distributed by tape traders at the time), and instead debuted with a 1990 self-titled album. Master (Chicago, Illinois): Early brutal thrash prelude to what would become death metal. Recommended listening: Seven Churches (1985) Their 1985 release of "Seven Churches" was a landmark in extreme metal that's hailed as one of the most influential of all time and is sometimes called the first death metal album. Possessed (San Francisco, California): One of the first and most influential of the bands playing the extreme thrash that would evolve into death metal in subsequent, Possessed's 1984 demo, "Death Metal," was not only one of the earliest and most influential extreme releases, but is often credited (to limited controversy) as naming the genre itself. Discussion of each band only relates to their most influential material, as this is a discussion of death metal and not a primer for each band- that means that there won't be much detail about later catalog stuff from each one, and the recommended listening list will be more tailored towards early influence. This list is just a brief primer for people new to the genre and doesn't attempt to serve as anything other than a small selection of important releases to listen to in order to understandl as a genre.
