LIVING DEATH, one of Europe's first Thrash/Speed-Metal bands was formed in 1980/81 from the brothers Reiner (guitar) and Dieter Kelch (bass), completed with Frank Fricke (guitar), Thorsten Bergmann (voice) and Frank Schubring (drums).
With this line-up they started their first successful gigs and recorded their first demo in 1982 with the songs "Living Death", "Nightlight", and "My Victim".
In 1983 Living Death got their first record deal with Earthshaker. The LP "Vengeance of Hell" had a very rough sound and got good pitches in all Independent charts on Earth
In the meantime Living Death lost their drummer Frank Schubring and after endless testing they catch Harald Lutze for drums. With this line-up they play some important gigs among other things for Warlock. But in the end of 1984 Andreas Oberhoff replaced Harald Lutze.
Living Death record the EP "Watch Out!" in the beginning of 1985, with sales of the first 5000 units in one weeks time. Following in the same year the LP "Metal Revolution", an uncompromising continuation from "Watch Out", was released, recorded in the Horus Studios and distributed by Bellaphon.
In 1986 Atomic Steif replaced Andreas Oberhoff and "Back to the Weapons" was recorded. The EP was released with a surprise. The record was censored by a sticker placed on the cover. This album is still today well sold.
Another project was formed with some other musicians at the same time - "Mekong Delta". Parallel with this project and its first LP, Living Death published their third LP ,"Protected from Reality", in 1987. The LP started with a great success and placed worldwide in all Independent charts and sold over 15000 units.
Living Death came to a decision to publish some live recordings, which were appointed only for USA, in spring of 1988. After the Live-Ep Living Death's last LP "Worlds Neuroses" was released in the fall of 1988.
It follows a discord short after publishing "Worlds Neuroses". Living Death get two new musicians: Gerald Thelen (voice) and Frank Ullrich (drums).
In the end of 1989 some gigs are done in the USSR with great success, and work is done on the songs for the next record. With this line up Living Death will get their greatest success.
