"By the late ’80s/early ’90s the primitive, zombie, blood and gore obsessed death metal had evolved to a more progressive style with lyrics delving into the dark side of human nature and suffering. Every one of Death’s albums has a distinct sound, and there were many line up changes over the years. Death’s legacy is heard in many extreme metal bands, and the impact his guitar playing had on the scene and music cannot be overstated. Death is a band that influenced all extreme metal genres, from thrash, and black metal to grind core and prog/djent."
