Autopsy - Live In Chicago 2LP

Autopsy - Live In Chicago 2LP

As one of the founding acts of American death metal, Autopsy helped shape the genre’s dark, filthy and uncompromising sound from the late 1980s onward. With Live In Chicago, the legendary San Francisco band finally unleashes their first official live album, capturing the raw power and morbid atmosphere that made them icons of extreme metal.

Recorded at Reggie’s Rock Club in Chicago on March 7th shortly before global lockdowns began, the performance documents Autopsy at full force, delivering a set packed with crushing riffs, sickening grooves and the unmistakable horror-soaked atmosphere fans have worshipped for decades.

Originally formed in 1987, Autopsy quickly became one of the defining names in death metal through landmark releases like Severed Survival. Their unique blend of primitive heaviness, doom-laden pacing and grotesque imagery set them apart from their contemporaries and influenced generations of extreme metal bands.

After disbanding in 1995 and later returning with The Tomb Within EP in 2010, the band proved their sound remained as savage and relevant as ever. Live In Chicago continues that legacy, showcasing both the timeless brutality of their classic material and the inclusion of the brand-new track Maggots In The Mirror.

The live recording perfectly captures the band’s filthy guitar tone, punishing drums and cavernous atmosphere while maintaining the organic chaos and intensity that define true old-school death metal.

Pressed as a double LP, Live In Chicago is an essential release for longtime death metal devotees and collectors of classic extreme metal vinyl alike.
