Formed in 1983 by Mike Browning, Trey Azagthoth, and Dallas Ward, Morbid Angel are known as one of the pioneering bands of the death metal genre and also the first death metal band to have significant commercial success, selling over a million albums throughout their career. This is due in part to them also being the first death metal band to get signed to a major record label, Giant Records, in association with Warner Brothers Records.
For some time Morbid Angel were an instrumental band until bass player Dallas began performing vocals.
Possessed are hailed as the godfathers of the death metal genre. They are considered by some to be the first death metal band and that the name of the genre comes from their first demo, entitled Death Metal.
Possessed was formed by guitarist Mike Torrao, drummer Mike Sus. Jeff Becerra from Blizzard came into the band, and soon was joined by second guitarist Brian Montana. This lineup recorded the 1984 demo Death Metal and also an appearance on the Metal Blade Records Metal Massacre VI compilation with the song "Swing of the Axe".
