History & Biography
Glasgow, Scotland’s Man Must Die is a technical death metal band formed in October of 2002. The band issued a debut demo, The Season Of Evil, only a year later. The group obtained a deal with Retribute Records and issued an album that was produced by Jean-Francois Dagenais of Kataklysm. The same team worked on The Human Condition. Kataklysm and Man Must Die toured together in 2010, but the members’ side-project, Godplayer, had already played with Kataklysm. The band’s first overseas foray was The Maryland Death Festival in May of 2004. The band was signed by Relapse Records by the time the second album hit in 2007. Matt Holland joined in late autumn of 2008. The group recorded its third album, No Tolerance For Imperfection, in England. Man Must Die added a second guitar player to its ranks in 2009. Rene Hauffe from German grinders Japanische Kampfhörspiele joined in the summer. Todd Hansen of The Berzerker became the drummer in 2012. Man Must Die signed a deal with Lifeforce Records. The band was at Valvetone recording a new album called Peace Was Never An Option. James Wright became the bassist in 2017, while Tony Corio joined on drum. 2019 brought an EP called Gagging Order that featured a few new tracks. Michael Allan joined as the second guitarist.

The band re-emerged with The Pain Behind It All in 2023. There was a video for the song Bring Me The Head Of The King.
