About

Cannibal Corpse is an American death metal band formed in Buffalo, New York, in 1988, now based in Tampa, Florida.

The band has released sixteen studio albums, two box sets, four video albums, and two live albums. The band has had little radio or television exposure throughout its existence, although a cult following began to build with the releases of their early albums, including Butchered at Birth (1991) and Tomb of the Mutilated (1992). As of 2015, they achieved worldwide sales of two million units for combined sales of all their albums. Cannibal Corpse received its best "first week" sales of all-time and first Top 10 on the Billboard Top Album Sales Chart with their fifteenth studio album Violence Unimagined (2021), which entered at No. 6 with 14,000 copies sold.

The band has seen several lineup changes throughout its run, with bassist Alex Webster and drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz being the only constant members. The band's current lineup includes Mazurkiewicz, Webster, vocalist George Fisher, and guitarists Rob Barrett and Erik Rutan. Cannibal Corpse has been credited as the most popular and influential band in the history of the death metal subgenre.

Cannibal Corpse est un groupe de death metal américain. Fondé en 1988 à Buffalo (New York) et initialement composé de Chris Barnes, Bob Rusay, Jack Owen, Alex Webster et Paul Mazurkiewicz, le groupe est considéré, avec quelques autres, comme étant un groupe pionnier dans le brutal death metal. Le groupe débute avec Eaten Back to Life en 1990. Viendront ensuite Butchered at Birth (1991) et Tomb of the Mutilated (1992) qui se vendront à eux seuls à un million d'exemplaires dans le monde dont 558 929 aux États-Unis. Les membres de Cannibal Corpse s'inspirent à l'origine des groupes thrash metal comme Slayer et Kreator, et autres groupes de death metal comme Morbid Angel, Autopsy et Death.
