LEFT TO DIE Revisits Death Metal Roots | Rock Music News

from Rock Music News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

LEFT TO DIE is a new death metal project featuring Terry Butler and Rick DeLillo from DEATH, joined by Matt Harvey and Gus Rios of GRUESOME, re-recording classic DEATH tracks from albums like Leprosy and Scream Bloody Gore — plus early MANTAS material. They’ve dropped an EP called Initium Mortis paying tribute to death metal’s roots. But they’re shutting the door on Kam Lee, who claims co-writing credits for those early songs — despite Butler calling him “toxic” after 40 years, and DeLillo agreeing they’ll never work with him again. Meanwhile, Chuck Schuldiner’s legacy continues with the release of Born Human: The Life And Music Of Death’s Chuck Schuldiner, a deep dive into the man who shaped the genre.
