Lust of Decay is a brutal death metal band hailing from Charlotte, North Carolina, that burst onto the underground scene in the early 2000s. Formed around 2000 by guitarist and vocalist Steve Green, along with other members like drummer Pete Lapree and bassist Jay Barnes, they've built a reputation for their unrelentingly heavy, gore-soaked sound that's all about slamming riffs, blast beats, and lyrics diving deep into themes of horror and decay. Their music draws from influences like Cannibal Corpse and Suffocation, making them a staple in the brutal death metal world with a dedicated cult following.
Over the years, Lust of Decay has dropped a handful of vicious albums through labels like Comatose Music, including their debut "Infesting the Exhumed" in 2002, followed by "Kingdom of Corpses" in 2004 and "Purity Through Dismemberment" in 2006. Though they've had some lineup changes and periods of inactivity, the band continues to represent that raw, underground aggression that death metal fans crave, occasionally popping up with new material or live shows to keep the brutality alive. If you're into extreme metal that doesn't hold back, these guys are worth checking out!
