“Death, The Sound of Perseverance, their final studio record, RIP Chuck. This is probably my favorite of theirs. Controversial opinion, but I just love how it sounds. It's more sleek than a lot of the other records and it's unfortunate that, you know, that was kind of it from them after Chuck passed away.”Watch this moment
The Sound of Perseverance
Death
The Sound of Perseverance is the seventh and final studio album by American death metal band Death, released on August 31, 1998, by Nuclear Blast. The album featured guitarist Shannon Hamm, drummer Richard Christy, and bassist Scott Clendenin for the first and only time. It was also Death's final studio album, as Chuck Schuldiner died due to brain cancer-related issues in 2001, and Death subsequently disbanded.
