Necrodeath is an Italian Extreme Metal band from Liguria. It is one of the first Extreme Metal bands born in Italy. They take inspiration from Slayer, Possessed, Kreator, Celtic Frost and Bathory. The band is also renowned for its great live performances, and notably for their mighty "wall of sound". Necrodeath is one of the most important and outrageous names in extreme metal, a distinctive influence on several modern extreme acts, who spotted Necrodeath as one of the absolute fave acts in their interviews .
Both first albums Into the Macabre (1987) and Fragments of Insanity (1989) were acclaimed by metal press and fanzines and allowed Necrodeath to have a cult following that is still present to this day. The band disbanded soon after the recording of the second album.
Historical members Claudio and Peso reformed the band in 1998 after a long break. Ingo was replaced by Flegias on vocals, while John became the new bass player.
Necrodeath released the album Draculea on October 22, 2007. The album is based on Vlad Tepes.
In 2008 Pier Gonella joined on guitar as an official member after touring with the band for two years.
