Chris Elliott of Cell Arts and  Black-Angeles Media chatted with Matt Harvey (Exhumed, Gruesome) of the Death tribute band, Left To Die! After extensive touring celebrating some of Death's classic albums, the band recently released their debut album Initium Mortis, from Relapse Records! The album is a modern re-recording of the pre-Death demos under the moniker Mantas. Matt is joined in Left To Die by Gus Rios (Gruesome, Cold Slither), original Death members Terry Butler (Obituary) and Rick Rozz (Massacre)! The album even features artwork by Dan Goldsworthy!As always, Matt gives a great interview and is not only a student of old-school brutal Death Metal, but is also doing a great job carrying the musical legacy of Chuck Schuldiner (RIP) forward.  Buy music and merch and follow Left to Die: https://www.instagram.com/left_to_die_official/https://www.facebook.com/lefttodiedeathmetalhttps://lefttodiedeathmetal.bandcamp.comhttps://www.relapse.comhttps://www.instagram.com/relapserecordsSpecial thanks to Liz at Earsplit PR for setting up this interview for us. This video's #gcshoutout → Stillborn Conditionhttps://www.instagram.com/stillbornconditionofficial/The Usual Suspects:Interview by Chris Elliott   https://www.instagram.com/cellartsmedia/Editing by Omar Cordyhttps://www.instagram.com/ojcpicsTheme music by Salted Woundshttps://www.instagram.com/saltedwoundsnycCheck out our linktree - updated daily with top stories: https://linktr.ee/ghostcultmag#lefttodie #death #ripchuckschuldiner #deathmetal #interview
