the death metal pioneers

New York death metal band Cannibal Corpse have managed to avoid being in the spotlight even though they have released an amazing 14 albums and have been rightfully labeled as pioneers of the death metal genre. Cannibal Corpse benefit from having a dedicated cult following which they've retained through their strong image and cohesive extreme metal music. Early this year, the band will head on tour.

The band delves into horror through their music and commonly speak about killing people. This has led them to getting into certain controversies and legal problems. However, the band's strong theme and sense of who they are has led to their success and they are the biggest selling death metal band of all time.

14 albums later and Cannibal Corpse still dominate the genre and have tons of devoted fans anticipating their next move.
