Music videos and more from INSANITY, unsung pioneers of early death metal that remained underground for many reasons (most notably the death of original vocalist/guitarist Joe DeZuniga in 1987).
About Me:
Insanity never became legends, but they should have... If not for a crazy sequence of events far too convoluted to fully detail here, they should have taken a place alongside Death, Possessed, and Morbid Angel as a groundbreaking technical Death/Thrash outfit... but it was not to be. The strength of the songs that the band wrote in the mid 1980s is beyond question - especially when compared what bands like Death and Morbid Angel were doing in 1985 - the sophistication of the Insanity material is on the same level as Possessed at their most fearsome, but a lot faster. It is a testament to the power of these unsung DM pioneers that these tunes still sound so damn fierce, it makes me wonder what the hell I would have thought had I heard them in '85! Hopefully this disc will help the band to finally be given its due as an important, albeit missing piece of the puzzle that is the evolution of Death Metal. - Matt Harvey - Exhumed, et al..

Thx for the invite. I play a form of Drop A, Anarchist War Metal. Similiar to Proclamation and Conqueror. I don't know about you, but I love metal bands with raw production. Metal bands today record their music too processed, too clean, too sterile, too forumulaic, and stip away all the reverb from the drums and shit. That's why I like Insanity.
