it is beyond me that you guys failed to mention possessed before death. chuck even stated that his main influence was possessed.
death,even in their demo stages, were late 1st wave, early 2nd wave death metal. one of the front runners in the tampa scene though. i like death, but they arent the sole father of death metal. they are the cross-dressing uncle of death metal


Good point.

Possessed was vital, as was Master, and Sepultura also released in 1984-1985.

Hellhammer had invented their hybrid black-death by then, and Sodom had been releasing it for a couple years. Ditto Bathory.

The real kickoff was 1982 -- Discharge, yes a punk HC band -- which basically innovated the technique others followed.

Also important to mention one solidifying influence: Slayer, in 1983.
