Background information über 'Death By Metal'

Before Death became legends of extreme metal, there was Mantas – the primordial beast that would eventually evolve into one of death metal's most influential forces. "Death By Metal" captures the raw, unfiltered essence of what would become a genre-defining sound, presenting 14 tracks of pure metallic fury recorded in 1984. These aren't just demos; they're archaeological treasures that showcase Chuck Schuldiner's vision in its most primitive and powerful form.

The album title track "Death By Metal" stands as a prophetic statement, literally naming the genre that was about to explode across the underground. Tracks like "Legion Of Doom" and "Evil Dead" demonstrate the band's ability to craft memorable hooks while maintaining that crushing heaviness that would become their trademark. The repetition of certain tracks throughout the collection offers fascinating glimpses into the evolution of these songs, showing how Mantas refined their craft even in these early stages.

For fans of:
Possessed, Venom, Celtic Frost, early Slayer, Necrophagia
