Massacre – a living legend of death metal
Kam Lee – drummer and first vocalist, called the pioneer of growl Mantas/Death – joined Massacre in 1984, shortly after the band’s formation. The formation is identified primarily with the then flourishing, famous Florida scene, the foundations of which he built together with, among others, Obituary, Mantas/Death, Atheist, Deicide and Morbid Angel.
The group fell into oblivion many times, then was resurrected, only to return to the stage for good in 2021 with the album “Resurgence”which was released by the German Nuclear Blast Records. “From Beyond”Massacre’s debut LP from 1991, is widely considered one of the genre’s most important achievements.
