Artist: CONTROL DENIED
Album: "THE FRAGILE ART OF EXISTENCE REMASTERED (DIGI)"

Year: 1999/ 2008
Media type: CD

The band Control Denied was formed by Chuck Schuldiner to create power metal, mixed with elements of death metal recognizable in his earlier band Death. The band started in 1996 as Schuldiner wanted to procure a more melodic style than was possible with Death. The project was interrupted by Death's release The Sound of Perseverance in 1998 but finally the debut album was released in 1999. A second album, tentatively titled When Man And Machine Collide, was partly recorded, but the death of Schuldiner in 2001, put the recordings on hold. Remaining band members have expressed a wish to complete and release the material. However, there still exists a legal dispute over the rights of the material with Karmageddon Media, further postponing the completion and release. Part of these incomplete recordings were released in the Zero Tolerance two-part compilation of Chuck's b-sides and unreleased tracks.

There are several reasons for Control Denied to be taken much more seriously than just a side-project. One of them is certainly the name of the group’s founder - Chuck Schuldiner to this day remains an icon of death metal music, leaving behind a true legacy of amazing albums and memorable songs. Control Denied was his final and most personal creation – a natural continuation of the ideas gathered in Death’s three last albums – “Individual Thought Patterns”, “Symbolic” and “The Sound of Perseverance”. Although musically the group ventured away from death metal into a bit lighter style, the progressive edge remained untouched – the band’s debut (and, as it was soon to be revealed, only) album, “The Fragile Art Of Existence” is still one of Schuldiner’s most fruitful efforts, showcasing mature, structured musicianship and amazing songwriting skills. And today Metal Mind Productions present re-release of this unique album by Control Denied.
