Historical Context of Death Metal
In the mid-to-late ’80s, death metal began as an underground genre, gaining traction in the early 1990s with bands like Death, Morbid Angel, and Cannibal Corpse from the US, Carcass and Napalm Death from the UK, and Entombed from Scandinavia. Since then, death metal has evolved, maintaining its essence while continuously attracting new fans and spawning numerous sub-genres.
