Charles Michael "Chuck" Schuldiner (May 13, 1967, Long Island, New York – December 13, 2001)..

A father to death metal. Everything death metal has influences from this man, And tragically he died 6 years ago to this date, from pontine glioma, a type of brain cancer.. as my tradition continues, i listen to Death all day on this day.. only way i can pay my tribute to one of greatest guitarist in metal history..


R.I.P. "We miss you!"

 

Death metal is about passion and spirit; christianity is about bowing to a spirit, an idea, and a religion which has demonstrated its moronic effects on culture for the last 2000 years.

Take a stand and reject the idea of martyrdom, self-pity and anything which reeks of the insipid christianity upon which this country was founded.

Hate me as much as you want, but I, as you, are entitled to an opinion.

 

RIP, Chuck.
Death pathed the way for today's modern death metal.
I had actually forgotten about his passing until you mentioned it.. Believe it or not, I actually had Individual Thought Patterns playing earlier. Coincidence... or just Schuldiner demanding homage? Who knows?
