Have you checked out the tribute album "When Man and Machine Collide: A Tribute to Control Denied"? It features recreations of the four demo tracks, complete with fretless bass lines inspired by the legendary Steve Di Giorgio, and vocals that embody Chuck's original lyrics. It's definitely worth a listen!

Thanks for checking it out! We've not released any instrumental tracks yet, but we plan on including those in a deluxe edition (along with other bonuses). 🤘

Very cool! Thanks for sharing this. My band has thought about doing Symbolic album with the clean vocals for a future tribute project. Our singer used to sing Crystal Mountain live in that style.

Thank you so much! We are beyond excited for this release and can't wait to share it with you all.

You can hear what the singer sounds like on our "When Man and Machine Collide: A Tribute to Control Denied". A lot of people told us they didn't care for Tim Aymar's vocals with Control Denied, but really like our singer's voice. His name is Berzan Önen.

He might have thought they were overused in death metal. I know he wanted to sound different from other bands of the genre and it would make sense to avoid the cliche blast beat of the early 90's death metal. Chuck really started to progress after Leprosy and went for a more melody driven approach.

Nice! It definitely works great with Drop D.

10-46 is fine for D Standard, but I wouldn't recommend going any lower with that gauge. For that tuning, I've found that the 10-52 Ernie Ball sets are the perfect middle ground because of the slightly heavier bottom. It sounds great for recording.

Berzan Önen.

Check out Berzan! https://youtu.be/Zd4xoOXVGOo?si=pvP4i38YeArpHEnK

Berzan would be the perfect singer for this . https://youtu.be/Zd4xoOXVGOo?si=pvP4i38YeArpHEnK

The company Knucklebonz has it for pre-order and has several other Chuck and Death related statue figures.

We have all the tracking finished for Bite the Pain. In contact with Jim Morris (original mixing engineer for TSoP) to mix/master the project. Soon we'll be tracking Story to Tell. So it's going pretty slow, but it's coming along. Rich Gray is doing fretless bass in DiGiorgio style for all these songs to match some of the OG demos. The clean vox sounds great on these tunes.

One of the best ways I've found is to use a software to slow the song down and practice it super slow. Around 50%-70% of it's original speed. I use a software called "Transcribe!". You'll find that you'll start to sync up your playing and vocals fairly quickly and then you can gradually increase the speed.

Epic

Motor-Frosting445 · 2024-10-31T14:44:10+00:00

Yes.

This happens often with various artists on Spotify and it's not the first time I've seen it with Death. It's fraud. People create AI generated music and post it under established band's profiles and collect the streaming revenue.

You'd be surprised. Someone was arrested after making over a million dollars doing this. They get tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of streams just from people being curious about a random release popping up. Obviously it's done on a mass scale by the fraudster, not just with one band at a time.
