Necrophagia
Necrophagia was formed in Wellsville, Ohio in 1983 by Frank "Killjoy" Pucci, making them one of the earliest death metal bands in the United States alongside Possessed and Death. Their debut album Season of the Dead (1987) documented a raw, horror-obsessed approach to extreme metal that earned the band a devoted following in the underground tape-trading scene. The band was revived in 1997 with Phil Anselmo of Pantera contributing under the pseudonym Anton Crowley, and continued releasing material until Killjoy's death in 2018; a posthumous final album, Moribundis Grim, appeared in 2024.
