February 4, 2007, 17 years ago
Wouter Roemers from Masterful-magazine.com spoke to death metal legend/DENIAL FIEND vocalist KAM LEE (ex-DEATH, MASSACRE) recently about a number of topics. Here is an excerpt from the chat:
Masterful-magazine.com: Tell us a bit about the early Florida death metal scene and how it was that you first got involved with the scene. I understand you were writing a fanzine prior to joining any bands.
Lee: "No... Not true... I was in the original MANTAS/Death line up in 1983-1985. Massacre in 1985 thru 1987. I didn't start COMATOSE fanzine till late 1989 at that time I reformed Massacre with Rick Rozz (after he left Death from Leprosy in 1988). The early scene... is pretty much the same as it is now. I think a lot of foreigners get the wrong impression of the scene. It's not like everyone sits around drinking with each other, hanging out, and playing shows together. As a matter of fact, everyone hates each other, everyone stabs each other in the back, and everyone shit talks everyone else. I removed myself from the local scene back in 1995... and I stay neutral... I have no problem with anyone, but still many bands hate each other, many bands do not talk to each other."
