Morbid Angel

Before recording their first single on seven inch vinyl, the band released two demo cassette tapes that they distributed themselves in the Tampa area. The demos were released between 1984 and 1988 and the names are Scream for Blasphemies and Bleed for the Devil. Founding member Trey Azagthoth is the only person to appear on these demos and all other Morbid Angel recordings.http://www.morbidangel.com/biography.html

In 1989 Morbid Angel released their first studio full length album Altars of Madness, this album went on to top the United Kingdom independent album chart the year it was released. Two year later in 1991 the band released their second full length album Blessed Are The Sick followed by global touring. The band then reached the milestone of being the first death metal band to be signed to a major record label. The band released two albums, Covenant and Domination, before vocalist and bassist David Vincent was replaced by Steve Tucker.http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Morbid-Angel-Biography/194071190F08898948256C5500076FF8

Deicide

In 1987 Amon released a demo tape that quickly caught the attention of Roadrunner Records. By 1990 the band released their first album titled Deicide, it was then that the band decided to officially change their name. This album later went on to be featured in the article "Top 100 Metal Albums of the 90's" by England's Terrorizer magazine. In 1992 they released their second studio album Legion, this album's success prompted Roadrunner to re-release the Amon demo tapes in 1993.http://www.earache.com/bands/deicide/navigation/biography.html According to Soundscan, the first two albums are considered to be the second and third best selling death metal albums of all time after the top selling album Covenant by Morbid Angel.http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=16769

In 2005 guitarists Brian and Eric Hoffman left Deicide because of a "lack of spirit" towards the band. Since then, the brothers have tried to claim the rights to Deicide's back catalog before 2005 and have started other bands. This comes just three years after the band changing record labels to Earache in 2002. The first record to be released on Earache was Scars of the Crucifix, since then all of their albums have been on this record label.http://www.earache.com/bands/deicide/navigation/biography.html
