Chuck Schuldiner Was Not "The Father of Death Metal"

After 1990, Chuck changed his logo and lyrical content into a less shocking, more acceptable form.  Upon his success, would spout his liberal/tolerant political and religious dogma at every turn, so he would not offend anyone. His music moved away from his early death/late speed metal roots, so he could, in short, "sell out" more easily: 

Many artists, including Kid Rock, Korn and Red Hot Chili Peppers, got together during the summer of 2001 to auction off personal items with the funds assisting Schuldiner's medical expenses, an effort covered by MTV. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuck_Schuldiner#cite_note-21 
Guitar World: Here, Here, Here, and Here

Chuck died a martyr, so BC Rich, Guitar World, Beth Schuldiner, and Jane Schuldiner could profit:
A portion of all proceeds goes directly to the family of Chuck Schuldiner. http://www.bcrich.com/chuckstealth/

Now that you have seen why the motive to revise metal history is motivated by corporate interests, sympathy, and matyrdom, rather than facts, let's take a look at some history:

- Possessed released Death Metal in 1984.
- Morbid Angel was writing before Death formed, and while Mantas was playing. So was Master.
- Sepultura released their death metal material in 1985, and they never listened to Death. They wouldn't have heard Mantas, and they were restricted to the usual Judas Priest, Slayer, etc.

And finally, the fanboys make use of Chuck's martyrdom, so they can cling to a hero and spread lies all at once: Link!

Spare us the melodrama... Chuck lost out to Trey Azagthoth in ability and creativity: Link!

But tell us, would Trey have received MTV-esque attention, had he died?

Also, Metal Archives, the world wide go-to source for metal music, did everyone a favor by telling the truth: Link!

Chuck is a false Messiah. Don't let his mother, fanboys, or any corporations tell you otherwise.

  2. You're pathetic and this is a lie. Chuck died of pneumonia after being left in a very weakened state from an experimental dose of the chemo med vincristine, used as a final effort to fight his brainstem cancer (pontine glioma). Almost as bad as your bullshit about Chucks death is overlooking the fact that Chuck himself never claimed to be the creator of the genre and always humbly paid tribute to his metal predecessors. In fact, he always crept back from the limelight or accolades. Merely because a small group of fans attribute posthumous Messianic overtures to Chuck's legacy you must be so horrid? You truly suck, hiding behind your little fake screen name like a coward. But that's OK, Edward Wallin - I hope you rot in hell. ERIC GREIF, former Manager of DEATH & lawyer for Chuck's legacy

    1. lol pontine glioma is not see in adults, if at all.
      It's prevalent among young children and has a very low prognosis, with only 10% of children surviving for 2 years afterr diagnosis and 1% of children surviving for 5 years.

  6. Imagine hating someone so much you make a whole website about that person lmao. What a fucking loser. You say liberal ideology yet that’s what 90% percent of what metal musicians are. Conservatives always get shitted on if they listen to metal. You literally have no idea what you’re going on about.

    Guess Chuck will always be with you since he lives in your head rent free (;
