The Canadian band Slaughter is credited for influencing death metal. They eventually broke up because of their annoyance for the music industry. Dave Hewson formed a new band under the name Strappado. Εven Chuck Schuldiner ( Mantas, Death, Control Denied) was a member of the band in 1986
In December 1994, Bobby Sadzak, Dave Hewson and Brian Lourie had a short reunion and recorded a cover version of Celtic Frost's "Dethroned Emperor", which is only available on the tribute compilation CD "In Memory of... Celtic Frost", released by Dwell Records in 1996. Strappado is considered a masterpiece of underground Extreme metal, with influences from Thrash, Early Death Metal and even hardcore punk. The album was recorded on February 9th, 1986 and was mixed in February 16th but was not released until 1987. If someone knows the exact release date, please let me know
