DEATH TO ALL: Pro-Shot Footage Of GRASPOP METAL MEETING Performance
July 2, 2014Professionally filmed video footage of DEATH TO ALL's June 29 performance at Graspop Metal Meeting in Dessel, Belgium can be seen below.
DEATH TO ALL features former members of DEATH celebrating the life and music of Chuck Schuldiner.
The band's current touring lineup includes the three surviving members of DEATH's "Human" lineup (guitarist Paul Masvidal, bassist Steve DiGiorgio and drummer Sean Reinert),along with with special guest vocalist/guitarist Max Phelps of CYNIC/EXIST and drummer Hannes Grossmann of OBSCURA, performing material primarily culled from the group's first four albums as well as other DEATH classics.
In an interview with Metal-Rules.com, Masvidal stated about DEATH TO ALL's current lineup: "[Because] it's just the 'Human' lineup, it's a tighter show. We're focusing on the best of leading to 'Human' and then a bunch of 'Human' material. So it's more the early DEATH catalog, and it just feels really good, 'cause Sean and I have a lot of chemistry from playing together a long time from CYNIC and everything. And Steve, who is just kind of one of us too, so it feels like really cohesive, it feels tight and we've been able to make it the kind of show that feels like a band show versus the last one. Which I think was a little bit more fragmented 'cause there was a lot of different musicians and it was kind of all over the place. So this feels tighter."
He added: "This [lineup] is as close as you'll get [to reproducing the 'Human' era] and Max bears a slight resemblance [to Chuck] if you squint your eyes. It's kind of interesting. And he sounds like him, too. It's pretty crazy but yeah, it works, it works well."
Chuck died on December 13, 2001 after a battle with pontine glioma, a rare type of brain tumor.
