Death - Scream Bloody Gore (1987) [2016 3CD Reissue]

Scream Bloody Gore is the debut studio album by American death metal band Death, released on May 25, 1987, through Combat Records. It is considered by some to be "the first true death metal record". Chuck Schuldiner plays bass and guitar, wrote all the songs on the album and provided all the vocals. John Hand is noted on the cover as playing rhythm guitar, though this was incorrect and Hand was only in the band for a short period and was not on the recording. This is also the only Death album to feature drummer Chris Reifert, who had joined for the Mutilation demo, and the only one of the band's albums to not be recorded at Morrisound Recording. Perseverance Holdings, Ltd. and Relapse Records reissued the album on May 20, 2016. The album was remastered for this release, and also included the original Florida session as well as recordings of rehearsals performed in 1986.
