American death metal band founded and led by Chuck Schuldiner, widely regarded as a pioneering and highly influential act in death metal. Active primarily from 1983 until 2001; Schuldiner died in 2001.

Chuck Schuldiner (1967–2001) was the band's founder, principal songwriter and constant member; Death evolved from raw early death metal to increasingly technical and progressive approaches.

DeBaser's reviews consistently praise Chuck Schuldiner and Death's evolution from raw early death metal to technical/progressive works. Key albums repeatedly highlighted include Scream Bloody Gore, Leprosy, Human, Symbolic and The Sound of Perseverance. Reviewers emphasize technical skill, compositional growth, and Schuldiner's central role.

For:death metal fans, metal historians, Chuck Schuldiner fans

 Because when someone gargles with muriatic acid, concrete nails, and the metal spheres of stainless steel bearings and then screams in your face with all the strength and wheezing desperation they possess "STACCALASPINA", for me they are the undisputed champion of the entire (un)known universe in terms of elegiac assorted poetics.
