While Death is my all time favorite band, I will not be that blind fanboy and will say Possessed did it first. Chuck himself even gave that credit to Possessed.
Also the first album by the underrated Necrophagia was released before Scream Bloody Gore.
Yeah it was possessed
@@srh361 they even coined the term Death Metal. Everything evolves.
Possessed were never a death metal band. They were death/thrash and were the first in my opinion. Bands like Sepultura, Devastation, 1st Malevolent Creation album, and Demolition Hammer were death/thrash that got their styles from Possessed. The debate on who were the first death metal band is pretty stupid really. There were several bands that started out more thrash and just got heavier in a short time. Lots of bands that dont get any credit because it was too hard to keep track. Death just got the popular vote because Chuck kept busy and pumped out album after album and toured alot. I believe he made it easier for recording studios like Morrisound to want to work with Death Metal bands like Deicide, Obituary, Cannibal Corpse, Suffocation, Malevolent Creation, etc. While Possessed simply just didn't stay around long enough. Their 1st album though was highly influencial on death/thrash. And there were alot of those bands popping out in the late 80's to early 90's thanks to Possessed.
More thrash than death to me
Never in history was wheelchair so METAL 🤘🏻. Great to see these guys kicking ass still! 🖤👍🏻
He's wheelchair warrior. ;)
A wheelchair is made of metal
@@8Junio76 Wheels of Steel ;)
I remember I had the Possessed and Death cassette tapes for months before I had the courage to make it through the whole album. It may sound corny nowadays but back in the day this was some scary shit especially when you’re a young kid brought up in a somewhat religious family. I’m so happy these guy are still going and putting out quality music. This is highly intelligent music that makes me proud even as an adult I can stand behind and support...long live Jeff Becerra, a fucking living legend not only as a musician but also a human being. His passion and energy is an inspiration to me.
Possessed is just damn awesome... bought the debut in '85 and I still play it regularly!
😂😂
I love Possessed!
I can't wait the new album!!!
I've been with Possessed since yall dropped 7 Churches in 85. You were such a refreshing change from the hair metal/glam rock shit from those days. When I found out how young Jeff Becerra was when he penned those lyrics, it blew my mind. He has both occult and biblical knowledge to write that album. A masterpiece for sure. Much respect to the kings of Death Metal
Celtic Frost, Possessed, Sepultura all deserve credit for being the progenitors of death metal.
Slayer’s hell awaits, haunting the chapel, and reign in blood should be included, people are hesitant to give them credit for the death genre because you’d be crediting them with fathering and then mastering two genres: death metal and blackened thrash. Listen to the riffs on hell awaits, and see how bands like sepultura, angel corpse, sacrifice, immolation, morbid, and others sought inspiration/(copied at times). It’s not passé music either, I don’t feel like “if only they could have played faster or added blast beats” - like some venom, etc. Hell awaits as does all early slayer, blows all things away still!
@@metalpractor5150 I agree that Slayer's greatness should always be credited. Hell awaits and Reign in Blood's influences are universal. Even when they slowed down on South of Heaven that album's grimness is still top notch.
Yes, I agree there are many gems on South of Heaven... I feel like for some reason Hell awaits is less universally known though, and reign in blood gets dismissed by older fans, simply because it’s “understood” as being monumental. It was so untouchable at the time that bands including Slayer (Kerry interviews ) didn’t want to come near emulating it least they be compared. Instead more mainstream thrash directions were followed(Safer waters). At the time of south of heaven and beyond the gates, I so wanted both bands to out do the heaviness and speed of their prior works... still love what they’ve done, but for years have been for filling the more aggressive needs while putting up with muppet monster vocals, glad Jeff is recording again.
glad someone else gets my point about celtic frost
again the point I have just made slayer to me with haunting the chapel epand hell awaits and classic album reign in blood where as well as thrash also death metal ,the lyrics album covers and imaginary all account for this
I used to listen and have all their albums. 7 Churches was on my Walkman in 9th grade all the time. Then they kinda disappeared (back in '87 there was no way to know what happened to Jeff). I'm just glad that Jeff keeps doing what he loves and he's giving the fans this awesome gift (New recording) after all these years!! Can't wait for the new album.
From day 1 when I first heard "The Exorcist" when the album released, I knew I was hooked. I owe everything I love about music to Possessed. In all it's incarnations. Hails.
"GLAM was rolling deep. Everybody just wanted to kill that shit! " - Best line of this piece. 🤘🏻
Must have been annoying for people. As a kid I liked the thrash and the glam sound. I used to call it electric guitar music.
What is best in life? To be heavier, faster and more satanic, than everyone else!... Aye, that is good..
Hahahaha
Crom!!
trust no man nor beast, but Possessed, Possessed you can trust...\m/
be slow as u can buddy. is best. Travel fast to hawaii island and slumber on beach
The Cookie Monster vocals came after Seven churches(the person interviewed just arrived late in hearing of Possessed). He’s right though, when other death metal bands could not be creative and diligent enough to find unique, raspy, powerful, and melodic vocals like Jeff’s, Millie, Ventor, angleripper, Van drunen, Urbanati, Araya, schmier, schuldiner, Rind - they put anyone in front of a mic who could monotone out powerless, deep guttural annoyances, while we have had to sit and take it for 30 years just to hear the killer riffs we love in the Death genre. Name your band and we’ll talk about how the riffs are killer and the vocals can be, well, tolerable. Not so with the vocalists from bands I mentioned when referencing their early works. Welcome back Jeff to lending new recordings to a genre that needs you. Any chance at including Torrao in the music writing also? The Eagles, Tom petty, and blue oyster cult had three guitars at times, and Possessed sounds just like them
Morbid Angel
Onslaught also had a song named "Death Metal" in 1985. But they had a hardcore punk roots.
Their roots was more venom like thrash metal. Steve grimmet era waa a cool period though.
NEW ALBUM FROM DEATH METAL GODS 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
You are Every Where
I remember listening to seven churches in high school. Really takes me back. I'll be looking out for the new album.
Waiting for the new album, and a USA tour. Hail Possessed. \m/
Hail Possessed!!! \m/
Metal doesn't have pioneers like this anymore... it's attack of the clones now
@the16th6toothson support to the old guard... Modern metal I don't give a fuck...
At the same time People bash bands that are trying to create something new... These old formulas work
Back then it was way easier to be most heavy and brutal than it is now. Heaviness and brutality has reached its limits naturally.
I am a modern metal fan and I bow to Sabbath, possessed, death, suicidal Tendencies etc.
I support the pioneers but a new genre is formed but everyone just shits on it before it’s got a chance such a djent
🔥P O S S E S S E D 🔥
By the way . Jeff was 14/15 when he started with possessed and cut that demo.
So cool that Possessed is coming out with new shit. Got into them recently, so I'm super excited.
Emilio Márquez is a fucking machine gun in the drums... Hail to the Masters...
My first concert was Black Sabbath in Salt Lake City at the end of summer (parents let me miss some school after spending the summer with my aunt and uncle) in 1972...just turned 10 y.o. and it changed my life forever. The next summer they took me to see Alice Cooper on the Billion Dollar Babies tour (with Steely Dan) as well, in Salt Lake. My point being is: my entire life from the age of 9 to my old age now ( 🤕 ) has been devoted to hard rock and heavy metal. Joined the military and was fortunate enough to see around 100 shows during my 21 year career and many more prior to enlisting. I have never heard anything more 'death' metal than shit I heard in Norway and Sweden. That music ( using the term loosely here, for it was 'not' music to me ), was extremely bass heavy and screeching dual guitars. Even purchased several albums that they were selling at the shows. Can't remember which bands were on it but, "Bitches Sin" and of course - "POSSESSED" we would play the death (pun intended) out of these albums at keggers when I would go home on leave...or rock the shit out of the barracks. Great music! 😎🤙🤘
I think I heard _Seven Churches_ in 87-88, and I've been a fan ever since. \m/
Too bad Larry Lalonde isn't in the band anymore.
I was just thinking that myself. What is he up to these days? I know he was in Primus for awhile but then I heard nothing 🤔
@@greyghost6446 He's back in Primus.. has been for a bit.
@@TheLarryburns84 ah cool. Good to hear he's still active. Thanks John 🤘
what's really too bad is that Mike Torrao isn't in the band - he was a much bigger piece of the original Possessed formula than Larry
@@caljerm Mike T refused to start anything with Jeff since the first rebirth with Sadistic Intent in '07 . He was quite bothered by that. Myspace was still big in that time frame, Mike had a page at one point where he re-did 'The Exorcist', uploaded to his page. Sounded FAST and a bit different from original. After Myspace went to shit and everyone abandoned it, I lost track of what happened to Mike T.
Can't wait for you guys to come to Las Vegas! 🤘😠🤘
Are they on tour?
You can argue about if they were death, thrash, or whatever. My personal opinion, I see alot of early black metal elements here. I'd personally call them more along the lines of proto black. However they were definately a big inspiration. And I won't deny how they obviously coined the term. But Scream Bloody Gore, in my opinion, was the first death metal album.
I was into Thrash metal when it became a thing and then sometime around 85-86 I was introduced to Possessed. At first, I didn't like them, just too crazy for me.
But I was intrigued and a year later I went and bought their cassette, "Beyond the Gates" and was hooked. Good to see them contiunuing on.
😂😂just chaos 😂😂
Bought Seven Churches when it came out in '85, been a fan ever since. They were the first death metal band, hands down. You may give credit to the first death metal vocals to Kam Lee or even Paul Speckmann, but I do believe death metal itself began with Possessed.
Back in 86 I partied all night and into the morning with Jeff and a roadie from the band they were touring with Dark Angel...I had my mom's car, went and got Jeff from his hotel, picked up some girls that I knew. Went and partied in my and my mother's apt. There ended up being a snow storm (Colorado Springs)..the bitches took off with my mom's car. I am standing out side at Dark Angels hotel, just me and Jeff almost 3 am in the snow storm wondering if the bitches were going to return. Long story short had a blast with Jeff one on one partying all night in their heyday. Jeff was so awesome, good times and memories and photos to boot !! Finally the girls showed back up and got Jeff to his hotel at daylight. He planned on sleeping in their tour van. Ohh I should add when I first pickedup Jeff I entered Possessed room and Larry Lalonde came up to me" hey man..I just bought this new pipe wanna toke"..So I broke in a new pipe that Larry bought at their hotel room, then me and Jeff left.
jontonian yes lol fucking awesome story
@@opendagates8642 Thanks...when I read people would like to hang out or party with Jeff, I feel metal blessed to have had that experience. Jeff was one of the coolest people I ever met. He was so out going and down to earth. I also snagged their playlist from the concert that night. Still have it all...
I consider you guys to be true back in the day. You are still true to me to this day.
Really gd band saw them 2x in the 80s at Lamours in BKLYN gd old days
Dream come true to see possessed.at one of the two major los Angeles fest.
Hellhammer made their contribution to the genre too..Apocalytpic Raids was released like a year and a half before Seven Churches.
YES!!!
Possessed blew my mind in 1985 and became my instant favorite
Your vocal is insane and raw and cold dark brutal
Argggggggggggggggggg
awesome as always nuclear blast I am hyped for the new possessed album 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Anyone got the new album on pre order? I do 🤘
Wow. You are a Girl. But you listen to this kind of Stuff?? My God. I want to marry just like you. I'm so feel bad that in the Philippines. Metal is underrated here. They listen to Kpop and Western Musics.
You betcha! 🤘🏻
What about Pentagram from Chile? they also set the ground for death metal.
They released their Demoniac Possession demo in 1985 and was hugely influential, even Napalm Death covered it.
To this very Day I still have that pentagram on 45 killer awesome brutal metal!!🤘
always one of the best voices in the fucking world !!!
Definitely one of the originators. \m/
Glad i saw them in California (last year?) Dude is in a wheelchair and still owned the fucking stage
Jeff Beccera is a trooper!!!
Beyond the Gates is available in Apple Music
After a full 33 years, the world is once again *Possessed.*
Wasn’t expecting much from the new album because the older bands that put out new albums have been mediocre with the exception of the new Carcass album. That said the new Possessed album is a killer album from start to finish, really fucking good!🤘🏼😎🤘🏼
I love Possessed. It's like Celtic frost on steroids
Mr Jeff becerra is the best
3fucking decades. Huge fucking respect to you guys. Love from Himalayas, Nepal. Wish to see you soon. Cheers. 🍻
The song “the exorcist” could be credited as launching the newer wave of black metal with its fast picking single note melody line, and the drum pattern aligning with the fast riffing lent To the “wall of sound” that other death metal bands would adopt... thankfully Immolation was worthy of carrying the heavy baton from then on. Could we just realize once and for all that the riff writing and gripping song structures with accenting the chorus and lyrics was best done in a death metal context by Possessed and Immolation
Que bonitos apellidos tienen la mayoría de los integrantes de possessed
Ugghhhh can’t wait for the new album hopefully they tour shortly after want to see them here in Houston or heck anywhere in Texas worth the drive. I been a fan since a I was teenager the band that got me into Death Metal along with Necrophagia(rip), Master, Massacre, Death(rip), Obituary, Morbid Angel, Immolation, Incantation, Deicide, Cannibal Corpse, Dismember, Unleashed, Bolt Thrower, Entombed, Atheist, Pestilence and so on and the rest was HISTORY!!!
Awsome 🤘💀🤘 but Will it be a longer documentary or is it just this 5 minutes.????
This is the 1st part
Jeff and Erik Rutan, Corpsegrinder are among the greatest dudes in metal and just g good dudes in general.
My Favorite Death Metal Band is Back!!!!🤘🏼 🤘🏼 🤘🏼 🤘🏼 🤘🏼 🤘🏼
Would Sodom “in the sign of evil” be considered early death metal, thrash, and 1st wave black metal. Thus far I consider it to be in the category of kick ass.

The Witching metal song was on their 1982 demo
Hail Possessed!!!!
Tão deixando a gente sonhar
Love them since there beginning
Great
Why they don't show the names of people who are speaking? is that Mike Torrao at 00:50 ?
Obituary is my favorite band from this genre.
Obituary are kinder childrens in comparision to Possessed ...
possesed coined the term death metal but chuck schuldiner created the death metal sound
This documentary is literally called the creation of death metal. I don't see the band death in the title. Death popularized it. They didn't create it. They were the second. Every genre starts somewhere. That's like saying Black Sabbath is hard Rock.
Possessed ! Es la banda creadora del sonido death metal junto a Death ! Máster of masters
Death metal songs with thrash metal vocals. Thats the only reason people whu people are doubting this.
This is gonna triggered some people somehow. 😂
Who cares if they are triggered?
It's 2020. Not 1986.
@@nipulkradmsinatagras8293 2021 now
@T B wow I was only 7 at that time they reformed again😂
Eh More like inventors of death/thrash
To be fair possed were more death/thrash
BadAssssssss🖤🖤🖤❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Holly hell , they are awesome
I got into Possessed in the early 80s and was into their music, but I'm not sure if they're originators of death metal. Exodus, Napalm Death, Celtic frost all formed around 1981-83. I heard the demo from Exodus's Bonded By Blood in 82 and that was the heaviest music in existence. I remember Napalm Death's Peel Session and Death's Scream Bloody Gore right after. Not to take anything away from Possessed, as they were bad ass, and I don't doubt they coined the term.
A minha opinião é seguinte, o Possessed fez o caminho para death metal, mas quem criou o som mesmo foi o Death e outra na mesma época que Seven Churchs foi lançado em 85 o Sepultura lançou o seu álbum de estréia Bestial Devastation no mesmo ano.
subtituloooos por la rechuchaa
No mention about Death. Chuck i feel is Disrespected....no hate but yall fucked up not giving him props in my opinion.
Oooooooo my gooooood
they are heavy as fuck despite playing in e standard
That intro tho
got my jacket signed by nergal and Jeff. every time I look at my smelly fucking piece of shit jacket I just love it. it's fucking amazing that the guy who made death metal and the guy who mixed black/death metal and survived cancer signed my jacket. SIKKK!!!
The term "Death Metal" was coined by Mike Torrao, not Jeff Becerra. Mike Torrao was the main composer and thus the backbone of the band. Without Torrao, it simply isn't "Possessed." It's a cover/worship band.
Best of death metal for me, hail possessed 🤘🏻
I'm wondering if Larry Lalonde is going to be interviewed.
Larry is interviewed about Possessed in the new "Murder In The Front Row" documentary film.
allow possessed did indeed help to pioneer death metal without doubt they first made a demo in 1984 called death metal and on debut album seven churches the final track is called death metal but to say they by their own where soley responsible is a bold statement why because in 1984 swiss band celtic frost released debut morbid tales which actually uses the term death metal on album sleeve the cover is called the death metal logo so I would say frost also pioneered death metal as well as black at least in their early stages even slayer with albums hell awaits and reign in blood helped it along the way allow slayer have never taken any credit for it and back to celtic frost well what about hellhammer the band they formed out of allow often credited as black metal they hade some material which could be decribed as death metal mainly at demo level anyway I am willing to say a draw between possessed and celtic frost
FUCK YEAH!!!!!!
Breh, lets say Death and Possessed are the best death metal bands, they both should get credit
Peace
And love..
Mucho amor
Who that
METAL FOREVER. MY LIVE.
what about death, just second only? i think they co - founded the death metal genre?
I POSSESSED 💚
Fuckin awesome!!!
I always loved Possessed. But I never felt they were the first Death Metal band. Hell, the new material being played in the background of their interview still isn't Death Metal. It's just brutal old school Thrash Metal (great song though). They didn't coin the term either. Also, judging by how they talk they really think they were on a different stratosphere than everyone else at the time, which I don't believe to be true either. They were a player back then like a lot of other bands and had a moment. Death was the first Death Metal band to me. Bands that were REAL trendsetters for Metal are bands like Motorhead, Raven, Venom, Bathory, Celtic Frost/Hellhammer to name a few. Bands like Possessed, though were great, came along and ate at the table those bands set for them.
Hellhammer were first to play death metal riffs already back in 1983.
@@Necroctulhu - It fascinates me how Hellhammer sometimes comes up in the first Death Metal band conversation. I never heard it. Hellhammer is more credited for being an influence to Black Metal bands clearly. Who knows what Darkthrone would sound like today if not for the Hellhammer/Celtic Frost influence. Hellhammer/Celtic Frost for the most part were just a Thrash Metal band. Tom Warrior's patented guitar style fits more of a Black/Thrash world. But if playing the first riffs is all that matters to you I would call Venom the first Black Metal band instead of Bathory. But I go by who creates the first complete song(s) for a genres creation. And in that case Hellhammer would definitely not be the first Death Metal band.
@@MainEventMafia4Life you are saying as if only Darkthrone were influenced by HH/CF. There were countless death metal bands strongly influenced by HH/CF. Probably even more than the ones influenced by Death.
@@Necroctulhu- I never said Darkthrone was the only band influenced by Hellhammer/Celtic Frost. I used Darkthrone as a prime example of a Black Metal band, legendary in fact, that took influence from them and the patented Hellhammer/Celtic Frost sound to this day is deeply rooted in their music. I have no doubt a lot of Death Metal bands like them. But is it obvious in Death Metal bands songs you hear? Like 95% of the Black Metal bands out there having a lot of old Bathory in their sound? No. You hear more bands in the late 70's and through the 80's rip off Judas Priest in song style and vocal style than Black Sabbath. But Black Sabbath is supposedly the first Heavy Metal band........right? LoL, Priest was the first true Heavy Metal band 100%.
@@MainEventMafia4Life the influence is pretty obvious in Obituary, Winter, Cianide, Asphyx and most of old Dutch death metal scene. Pretty sure I am missing some.
Seven Churches great record- love it, 2nd was real good not as over the top- Eyes of Horror- great too
Death metal was created by the band Death, is the same discussion with the thrash, It was not Motorhead, it was Metallica the first one who was coined the definition
Necrophagia (underrated death metal band) first album "Season of the Dead" was released 3 months before the first album of Death. From the music to the lyrics and the album cover, everything in that album by Necrophagia is death metal.
Wrong....
Chuck Shuldiner himself said he did't invent death metal
Metallica didn't not invent thrash, and never coined the term. Death did not create Death Metal...it was Possessed. James Hetfield himself has said that Metallica did not create thrash, they just popularized it. "The term "thrash metal" was first used in the music press by Kerrang! magazine's journalist Malcolm Dome while making a reference to the Anthrax song "Metal Thrashing Mad" ".

yup
Possessed. That great death metal band. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
i love you
Oh man. Hear we go again, the never ending debate weather Possessed or Death is the first death metal band
None of these bands are the pioneers of anything. I can not believe that just the bands that created the styles were the ones that worked. imagine how many bands were playing as fast as the ones we knew, but they gave up halfway? They were just the first to hit death metal. But that does not take the credit of them ... surely they are different musicians in their times and until today. I have so much respect.
@nuclear blast do you will rerelease the Second Album please?
Creators of Death Metal are here 🤘🏻 Thank You
If this is part 1, where is part 2? Is there a way to view the second part? Or even a way acquire this documentary? Why is there no information to this effect?
It will probably be released before the album just like this video
