Description
The band’s legacy dates back to 1984, although they didn’t release their now-classic debut-album ‘From Beyond’ until 1991. Up until that point, it was an on-again/off again affair, however, in that Butler, Rozz and Bill Andrews (drums) put MASSACRE on hold as they teamed up with the late metal icon Chuck Schuldiner.
Fast forward to January 2012, when the reunited MASSACRE performed on the ‘70,000 Tons Of Metal’ cruise in the Caribbean. It was clear that MASSACRE – now with Ed Webb (vocals, ex Diabolic / Eulogy) and Mike Mazzonetto (drums, ex Pain Principle) filling out the line-up – were serious about being back in business, showcased in great shape and were offered a record deal on the spot.
No need for the extra bells and whistles you’re bound to find in modern-day death metal productions , and no attempts were made to make MASSACRE something they’re not.
