Suffocation - "Catatonia" [Live @ Scion Rock Fest 2012] (Scion AV)

Taking the multiple languages of music and unifying them in an evocative, thundering chorus of death metal, Suffocation took the Rock Fest stage by storm with "Catatonia.

In death metal history, Suffocation stands unique for fusing the technical with the percussive, brutal "older" styles of death metal as well as for being emulated more than any other band. Forming in 1989, Suffocation quickly released their 3-song debut Re-incremation. Within weeks of its existence came the interest of many labels who wanted to claim stake to the first full length album. Suffocation takes the rhythmic relentlessness of hardcore beats, put them into speed metal structures and overlaid off-time counterpoint structures. The band's first release "Effigy of the Forgotten" moved Suffocation to a new plane, taking the multiple languages of music and unifying them in an evocative, thundering chorus of death metal.
