SoundClick artist: Dead Speak - Atlanta based Death/Grind Metal band sounding like Cannibal Corpse, Grave and Suffocation.

Dead Speak was a band formed back in 1987. Known as Disciple, Aggressor and Desecrator, the band finally in 1989 changed permanently to Dead Speak. The band was made up of Denney Jay-Vocals, Joey Guerrieri-Guitar, Steve Parr-Lead Guitar from 1992-1993, Kenny Wofford-Bass from 1987-1993, Carey Brewer-Bass from 1993-1994, David Briley-Bass from 1989-1990 and Jody Kelley-Drums. Influences at the time were Cannibal Corpse, Death and Suffocation. The band called it quits in 1994. In 2003 members of the band reunited to redo their old songs. Along with new songs the band still remains a local Atlanta band.

Why this name?

From the Brian Lumley's Necroscope series.

Do you play live?

We don't play live anymore. We played through the southeastern states. Loved playing live for the crowd. Playing with Deicide, Cannibal Corpse and Obituary were our highlight shows to us. We were very lucky to even get to play at the famous Metroplex in Atlanta.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

Gives everyone the opportunity to express and search for bands that might not be able to get on to any record label yet. The internet provides a way to put your music out for people to hear.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

Not anymore. Had the chance once and passed it up.
