Death N Roll
Death 'n' roll (portmanteau of ''death'' metal and rock'' 'n' roll'') is a subgenre of death metal music that incorporates hard rock-inspired elements. The achieved effect is that of death metal's trademark combination of growled vocals and highly distorted detuned guitar riffing with elements reminiscent of 1970s hard rock and heavy metal. Notable examples include Entombed, Gorefest, Carcass, Xysma, Convulse, Kaptain Sun, Six Feet Under, Pungent Stench and the Fernando Colunga Ultimate Experience. History While the "death 'n' roll" tag was first associated with Entombed, Daniel Ekeroth associates the style with a previous group called Furbowl. After Entombed's release, ''Wolverine Blues'', the band became associated with what the music press dubbed as "death 'n' roll", a label which has followed Entombed's career ever since. In the years following the album's release, the sound was embraced by Dismember on ''Massive Killing Capacity'' (1995), Carcass on '' Swansong ...
