That's so awesome. It's so great they're finally getting some recognition. It's too bad it's all coming too late for David Hackney. It would have been great if he were still around to see this.

Death was just here in Chicago....and I missed them.
hopefully they'll come back, in lieu of the movie coming out.

Um, are you sure it was the same Death? I'm not saying it wasn't, but I know there are other bands called Death and the main guy in Death died a few years ago.

So is there a link to the music or is just everyone saying it's cool without hearing it?
