Obituary
Tampa, Florida's Obituary are one of death metal's most foundational bands, having helped establish the genre's identity with their 1989 debut 'Slowly We Rot' and its landmark follow-up 'Cause of Death.' John Tardy's distinctive, guttural vocal style and Trevor Peres's downtuned, Celtic Frost-influenced riffs created a template for the entire Florida death metal scene. Over 35 years and eleven studio albums later, Obituary remain one of death metal's most consistent and revered acts, never once wavering from their crushing, doom-inflected approach.
