My 100 Favorite Metal Bands Pt. 31: Deceased...

Quite possibly one of my favorite bands going right now, Deceased... is also one of the most underrated bands out there. They released a terrific death metal album in 1991 which went largely unnoticed. Then in 1997, they released what was probably the best American metal album of the year. Again, it went largely unnoticed. Such has been the curse for the band because every release they put out is terrific, yet there really are not that many people out there aware of them. For shame people, for shame. Deceased... is set to release their first full-length since their amazing 2005 album this year sometime. It will likely make my Top 10 at the end of the year if clips I have heard are any indication, but they will barely register a blip anywhere else.

FAVORITE ALBUM: FEARLESS UNDEAD MACHINES

  1. It's really weird how some bands can just hang around putting out one good album after another and never get noticed. Do they avoid touring or something?

  2. I haven't really heard their name mentioned as being on tour, but I don't really pay much attention unless a band is coming to Nebraska, which happens rarely. I'm not sure why they never really got noticed.

  3. Personally, I don't care whether a band tours. I'd hate to say I'm like Fenriz in any way, because I think he's pretty immature and self-important, but like him I have little use for live music.

    With as often as you plug this band, there must be something to them. I might have to check it out.
