DEATH - need I say more? You all know 'em, don't you? So I don't need to tell you anything about their origin. DEATH have released a new demo and the only way to describe it is: Aaaaaarrrrrrrggggghhhh!

Their "Mutulation" demo features 3 tracks: "Land of No Return", "Zombie Ritual" and "Mutulation". All of 'em are totally no-mercy-thrashers, which will blow away everything!! Death metal at its best! Finally DEATH have got a record deal. Combat Records signed them and the album will be out soon. So beware... The following interview was done with Evil Chuck himself...

HOW DID YOU GET THE CONTRACT WITH COMBAT REC.?
Well, we recorded the new demo in April and immedietly sent it to Combat. We were pretty confident with the demo. Chris Reifert is the new drummer who appears on the demo. He is fuckin' God! Wait till you hear the LP.
 
WHY DID YOU LEAVE SLAUGTHER, AND HOW DID YOU LIKE THE TIME WITH 'EM?
Because I should never have dropped DEATH, DEATH is the only band for me. SLAUGTHER fuckin' is pathetic, as people and as musicians. I think the bassist is a homosexual, seriously.
 
YOU LIVED IN SAN FRANCISCO FOR A WHILE. WHICH IMPRESSIONS DO YOU HAVE FROM THE BAY AREA?
California is killer! They've got a great scene. I can't wait to go back as soon as the album is done.
         
TELL ME SOMETHING ABOUT THE ALBUM.
The album will be called "Sream Bloody Gore" and will contain 11 songs. It will be extremely heavy, fast and tight.
 
WHAT WAS THE REASON THAT YOU HAD SO MUCH PROBLEMS WITH YOUR LINE-UP?
It took me 2 years to find the right drummer (Chris). It's hard to find people with my style of playing - we're not gonna settle for just anybody. It has to be exactly right for the band.
 
WHAT'S YOUR MAIN GOAL IN YOUR LIFE?
To keep making DEATH better and better, get as big as possible, and not wimping out!
         
DO YOU HAVE IDEAS FOR THE COVER?
It will have zombies drinking maggots and guts, it will be great!
 
WHAT BANDS DO YOU LIKE?
POSSESSED, SLAYER, NASTY SAVAGE, SACRILEGE (CA.), SACRIFICE...
 
WHAT ARE YOUR FUTURE PLANS?
To keep partying and playing death metal and to get a hot blond chick who will .... my .... and more...
         
YOU HAVE THE HEAVIEST SOUND AND THE BRUTALST TRACKS I'VE EVER HEARD. WHERE DO YOU GET THE IDEAS FOR THE MUSIC AND LYRICS?
Lyrics come to me from watching cool gore flicks or just from my mind. Especially when I'm fucked up! That's when I write good music also.
 
WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF VINCE NEIL SHOULD VISIT - BY MISTAKE - A DEATH GIG?
I'd fuckin' kick his ass and while he's on the ground bleeding and crying I'd take a rancid smelly shit in his face and make him eat it!
 
ANYTHING THAT YOU WANNA ADD?
Keep supporting true death metal bands. Death metal fuckin' rules the earth. All the best to METAL WARRIORS!
