My band was the local opener for 6FU around 2004 or so. Admission was $35 (for three locals and Six Feet Under). Roughly 1/2 of the tickets went unsold and Chris Barnes decided that it wasn't worth playing, so their merch guy grabbed the cash box and literally sprinted to the bus and the band left. Since we heard what happened right when we were done playing, we took our time tearing down our gear while an announcement was made saying that 6FU had canceled. A rumor started circulating the crowd that we ran overtime and that 6fu couldn't play because we bumped them (which we didn't). Long story short, I had to escape getting my ass beat by like 250 drunk Chris Barnes loyalists because the band literally decided at the last possible second that they weren't going to play, but stole all the money from the show making refunds difficult/impossible.

You really should give Barnes more credit. He is a pioneer of the genre.

Me and a few fans were lucky enough to meet Paul Mezurkiewitz after a cannibal corpse show not to long ago, i’ll never forget when Paul let out a genuine laugh when a fan asked him what he thought of the new 6FU album lol

Me - "Hey, Chris, whats your favorite chord?" Chris Barnes - "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"

Replacing Chris Barnes with Corpsegrinder was the best thing Cannibal Corpse ever did for themselves. Barnes' voice started to die off right around the Bleeding, and CC were getting better musically with each passing album. Barnes was the only person in that band who wasn't interested in growing his skills. He was happy just writing about stabbing queefs or whateverthefuck and blazing in his hotel room. And at the same time, the rest of the band matured and focused on being the best they could be. They needed a singer with the same mindset (not to mention someone who would actually take care of their voice) or they would implode. George was that guy. He may be a Warcraft-obsessed manchild, but he’s still 100% committed to his craft and takes care of his voice very well. And look at where the two bands are now. CC are still making solid albums in their 50s, whereas SFU and Chris Barnes are walking memes. Cannibal Corpse saved their careers with that move.

I honestly can't believe they thought their last album had the quality to be released or at least to charge people for it.

True Carnage and Bringer Of Blood may aged badly, but they were pretty important at the time. They were heavily influenced by Nu Metal and Six Feet Under became an important gateway band to extreme metal. You saw young kids running around in their merch, who probably never heard about Cannibal Corpse and didnt give a shit about the "classic" DM sound on albums like Haunted. They were there for the stoner guy with dreadlocks doing rap growls over groovy and bouncy riffs. Heck there were straight up guest features by rappers. Thats what started the journey into DM for many people and deserves some credit.

So in 1994 a 15 year old me was bored with 25 bucks and went to the only used books and record shop in town (at the time) and walked out of the store with: Autopsy's "Mental Funeral", Cynic's "Focus", Sinister's "Cross the Styx", Pestilence's "Testimony of the Ancients", Mortician's "Mortal Massacre", Six Feet Under's "Haunted" and Slayer's "Divine Intervention." I enjoyed it for about a week then stopped listening to it all together. The Slayer album lasted about as long as SFU, they both ended up back at that same pawn shop.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

Is it weird I have gone my entire life without listening to ONE Six Feet Under record? They've always come off as the Super Joint Ritual of death metal, no one really cared they existed. Kind of like when Phil left Pantera, but people knew Chris (and in the same breath, Phil) were still working, but it would never be the same as when they were in their original bands.

The cover albums of course are hilarious (their cover of maiden’s The Evil That Men Do especially) but honestly I think bringer of blood might be their funniest record. I wholeheartedly recommend it on that basis alone

I was really into this until about halfway through. You said something about youths and after that all I could think about was Joe Pesci in my cousin Vinny when he's talking to the judge. "two youts." I love that movie and that scene, so I'm going to have to come back to this. 😅

Barnes's guttural vocals on True Carnage sounded liked because he said that he tried bringing back his style he had on Butchered at Birth and Tomb Of The Mutilated.

Another reason Undead is a killer album is that Rob Arnold from Chimaira was 2nd guitar, and for some reason also did bass for that album.

Something must have happened with his mind, probably too much bad weed, and I don't even mean this as a diss or making fun of him - a friend of mine got his whole personality changed after what he called his "awakening", but people around him with some medical knowledge would describe as a drug induced psychosis.

SOME REAL treats out there lemme tell you....

As someone who grew up when SFU was releasing their first few albums, it saddens me to see this. I remember when Maximum Violence came out!! Dude.... there was nothing like it. Haunted and Warpath with always be my favs, their sound changed a lot after that and got more muddy and (I think) they started tuning down. True Carnage was the last album I purchased of theirs, it just wasn't the same. Welp, time to spin up some Haunted!! Great video!!

Loved the video!! When Bringer of Blood was released I became a fan. Not a huge fan but I respected them. I can honestly say from the album I only liked about five songs but I’ve listened to 6 feet more than I ever did listening to a band like Slipknot. My bands are Kalmah,In Flames,Mors Principium Est, and I absolutely love Atmospheric metal. Caladan Brood, Druadan Forest, and Be’lakor. Thanks for all your input!!

Yep, I'm a big fan of blackened melodic death metal which is what Kalmah is. I'd highly recommend you check out Children of Bodom, Norther (early stuff) Suotana, Catamenia and stuff like that since they're pretty similar to Kalmah.

I am not a fan of death metal whatsoever! But I saw these guys in Cincinnati, and they were so very good! I remember really getting into their performance, and the singer kinda noticed me I guess, because he gives me a thumbs up, I turned around and everyone else was just standing there with their arms crossed, watching. I thought they were very good and very entertaining.

I feel old not knowing anything by Six Feet Under after early 2000s. I still enjoy metal shows but I don't keep up with anything in the scene too much. I didn't realize Chris Barnes was getting hate. I had a good time when I saw them live back in the day. I went to both a cannibal corpse show and a gwar show in the last couple years and felt super old. I felt like the Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats show I went to a few months ago was more my pace now days. 😅

I did not listen to this all the way through, yet. What I did want to say that while most of my friends in the death metal scene in the early/mid/ late nineties loved Cannibal Corpse and Chris Barnes, when six feet under came out and corpse grinder was doing his thing with Cannibal Corpse, we kind of dogged his shit because we were loyal to Chris Barnes and Hammer Smashed Face, and everything else kick ass that he did. I still remember the comparisons that "Corpsegrinder ain't no Chris". That much is true. But they are both unique singers and bring something different to the plate. As I've gotten older in the last twenty years I have come to both appreciate and respect corpsegrinder for what he did with Cannibal Corpse. I loved the absolute crap out of Vile, hit after hit, including Bloodlands. I also still love chris barnes and early six feet under as well. Innate biases of the past aside, I love them both.

I really liked Corpsegrinder with Monstrosity. Imperial doom is one of my favorite dm albums. That said I felt the same way when he moved over, but have really came to like a lot of his material later on. Gore Obsessed is one that comes to mind. I guess this is kind of a comment for another post, though.

I dug SFU up to Bringer of Blood. They're just fun, straight ahead death metal. Also, in my opinion, "Victim of the Paranoid" is one of the best songs ever \m/

Its really shocking how no one mentions Steve Swanson's contributions to the band. His guitar work is brilliant. Its only after he left the band went to shit. Some of those songs you think are simple are far from it, especially on Bringer of Blood.

I’m not gonna lie, I enjoyed listening to Death Rituals, I blew the hell out of my car speakers when I was in high school from listening to Seed of Filth and Ten Deadly Plagues, which were my two favorite songs from that album. Other than that I agree with everything else you pointed out in this video. Great video though, keep up the good work.

Everybody mentioning Ola Englund but Kevin Talley on drums was nearly as important to give Unborn a fresh sound.

I can never unhear the frog croaking cover of TNT by ACDC that SFU did. Life is pain 🥲

damn i think these two bands have memorable riffs (especially CC, they got me in the heavier music stuff, like they were literally the first band i listened and realized what heavy music is). I'm sure of it. But sometimes i listen to SFU mostly, because of the bass player Jeff Hughell and there 's no way not to mention Brain Drill. As a bass player i really like his stuff and riffs. But man his tapping skills are insane i have to admit. I'm just a metal fan that can't judge bands and I'm not sure what I would do if all the heavy music didn't exist, so stay metal guys.

Rob Arnold deserves so much more credit for what he did writing Undead. Unborn was great and Ola did a fantastic job with it, but Rob is an unsung hero in terms of what he did to revitalize SFU. I feel like Ola gets more praise because he's more popular.
