In the mid-to-late ’80s, death metal was a peripheral genre of underground bands. Then, by the early 1990s, acts like Death, Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse and a handful other US bands predominantly from the Florida and East Coast areas started gaining traction. At the same time on the opposite continent in the UK, the likes of Carcass, Benediction and Napalm Death advanced with their own breed of death. On the other shore of the North Sea, in Scandinavia, bands such as Entombed, Therion and At the Gates all added their own blend to the mix. By then, the rest of the world had caught on and death metal as a phenomenon was a fact. Ever since, trends in heavy music have come and gone, but death metal has stayed its course and stood its ground. Arguably no genre has evolved in a more organic way, with a constantly rejuvenating fanbase and steady increment of bands. Today, although fragmented and more of an umbrella to a host of sub-genres, death metal has never been more alive.
This is where the Death Metal EZX takes its vantage point – to bring you timeless drums, tailored for modern death metal production. It was recorded by acclaimed engineer/mixer/producer Mark Lewis at the impeccable room at Sonic Ranch in Tornillo, Texas, and sampled by legendary drummer Sean Reinert (Death, Cynic). The two featured kits, handpicked from the Death & Darkness SDX, display two kindred but fundamentally different beasts of razor-sharp, pristine and crystal clear drums designed to cut through in anything from rampant tempos to dense walls of guitars and extremely layered productions.
With the Death Metal EZX, you get the touch and stroke of a legendary drummer combined with Mark Lewis’ engineering applied on two meticulously sampled and tuned drum kits, ready to bring your music into the future and add some new life to your death metal.
在80年代中后期，死亡金属是地下乐队的外围流派。然后，到1990年代初，像死亡，病态天使，食人尸体和少数其他主要来自佛罗里达和东海岸地区的美国乐队开始受到关注。同时，在英国的对面大陆，尸体，本笃会和纳帕姆死亡之类的人也以自己的死亡品种而进步。在北海的另一岸，在斯堪的纳维亚半岛，诸如Entombed，Therion和At the Gates之类的乐队全都加入了自己的混音。到那时，世界其他地区已经流行起来，死亡金属已经成为一种事实。从那时起，繁重音乐的潮流就来了又去，但死亡金属一直沿用至今。可以说没有任何一种类型以更有机的方式发展，不断更新的粉丝群和稳定的乐队增长。如今，死亡金属虽然碎片化，并成为许多子类型的保护伞，但从未像现在这样活着。
