Morbid Angel

Morbid Angel is a Tampa, Florida, United States-based death metal band assembled in 1984. They, along with Deicide, Death, Possessed, Autopsy, Suffocation, Obituary, Massacre and a handful of others were crucial in the development of the death metal genre and its standards. Their songs are complex in arrangement, owing to the considerable technical skills of both guitarist Trey Azagthoth and drummer Pete Sandoval (who also played in the grindcore/death metal band Terrorizer).

taken by force

1. TAKEN BY FORCE hail from Baltimore City, and are here to crush with their blend of Merauder meets Death Threat style of hardcore. Following a couple of demo releases, their debut s/t 7" and full lenght come loaded with energetic fast parts and sing-a-long choruses combined with awesome metallic guitar riffs and breaks. Add in some sincerely bitter lyrics about friendship and betrayal, and that pretty much sums up what this band is all about.

They were much more than just the next thrash band, they used odd signatures and melodies to create an original style all their own.
