Bio
Obituary is one of the pioneering bands of the death metal genre. The band came from Tampa, Florida, and was founded as Executioner in 1985, and then changed their name to Xecutioner to avoid confusion with the other one.
Having survived the silly season, Simon Coffey got back in the saddle and checked out groundbreaking death-metal icons Obituary on their Barely Alive tour in Aotearoa, four years on from the last visit.
Seasoned death metallers OBITUARY weren’t on the UK leg of TRIVIUM‘s recent tour; something they made up for by announcing one night at Camden’s Electric Ballroom – which promptly sold out.
