Death

American Death metal band formed in 1983 under the name Mantras. They re-formed as death in 1984, and hit it off. they're the first ever death metal band (i think the genre's named after them). The lead singer (Chuck Schuldiner, RIP) accidentally growled/screamed when trying to cover a slayer song, and thus was born Chuck's amazing voice.

"Death fucking rocks, too bad Chuck died."
