DAVID VINCENT Explains Why Florida Produced So Many Traditional Dying Steel Bands

What the hell was in Florida’s water in the course of the ’90s that gave the world such implausible bands as Dying, Morbid Angel, Obituary, Deicide, and far more? Based on David Vincent (ex-Morbid Angel, I Am Morbid, Vltimas) in an interview with KazaGastão, it was two issues – Morrisound Studio and an entire lotta likelihood.
“Properly, I do not suppose so. What occurred was [legendary recording studio] Morrisound Studios was there. It is nearly like individuals suppose that there is one thing within the water; there’s not. Individuals romanticize all types of stuff, they are saying, ‘Oh, man, perhaps I can go to a bar and I can see Morbid Angel and Obituary and Atheist and all these individuals on the similar place.’
“We had been all mates, but it surely’s not such as you go to at least one place and it is like a clearing home for excessive music. Morrisound Studios recorded various these data, Morbid Angel amongst them, and it simply sort of received often called a hub for this type of stuff. I do not suppose it has something to do with town; I feel it simply has to do with — happenstance.”
For these unaware, Morrisound Studio was the birthplace of tons of basic dying steel albums. Take a fast stroll by way of this checklist and you will find Cynic‘s Focus and the a great chunk of among the aforementioned bands’ discographies. Most of those data had been produced by Scott Burns, who has since given up the craft. Burns‘ remaining manufacturing was Obituary‘s 2005 effort Frozen In Time.
