Death To All, the touring tribute to the late Chuck Schuldiner and his pioneering band Death, returns to North American stages this November for a month-long celebration of two of the legendary band’s landmark albums: ‘Spiritual Healing‘ (1990) and ‘Symbolic’ (1995).
“The time has come to commemorate a couple of milestones in the DEATH catalog,” says Gene Hoglan, whose iconic drum performances graced classic DEATH albums, Individual Thought Patterns (1993) and Symbolic. “30 years of Symbolic and 35 years of Spiritual Healing! Two vastly different yet significant eras of DEATH. Both albums are going to be a blast to represent.”
Hoglan is joined in the Death To All line-up by fellow Death veterans Steve DiGiorgio (bassist on 1991’s Human as well as Individual Thought Patterns) and Bobby Koelble (guitarist on Symbolic), as well as Max Phelps (Exist, ex-Cynic) on guitar and vocals. Death To All celebrated Scream Bloody Gore (1987) and The Sound of Perseverance (1998) across North America in 2024.
Along with the dual album celebration, each night will showcase classics from DEATH’s catalog.
“Will Spiritual Healing and Symbolic be performed in their entirety like last year’s sold-out Scream of Perseverance tour?” Hoglan teases. “Well, everyone is going to have to catch these shows for themselves to see. Will it be an incredible night of unforgettable metal, honoring the great Chuck Schuldiner, as only Death To All can do? Of course it will. Death To All stands alone.”
The fall tour will feature special guests Gorguts and Phobophilic.
“It’s with great honor that we’ll be sharing the stage with these death metal monuments,” says Gorguts vocalist/guitarist Luc Lemay. “DEATH had such an important influence on me as an artist. It’s the band that made me want to become a death metal musician. Chuck was my idol, my inspiration. See you on stage. Be prepared for an evening of classic death metal!”
North Dakota death dealers Phobophilic will open each show with their cerebral savagery.
“This will be an unforgettable tour, indeed,” Hoglan promises. “We can’t wait to share these November nights with all of you.”

About DEATH TO ALL:
Founded in 1984 by Chuck Schuldiner under the original name of Mantas in Altamonte Springs, Florida, DEATH was among the more widely known early pioneers of the death metal sound, along with California’s Possessed. Inspired by Nasty Savage, DEATH was among the first bands in the Florida death metal scene. In the late 80s, the band was both a part of and integral in defining the death metal scene, which gained international recognition with the release of albums by a number of area acts.
Death To All operates as a tribute band to the original DEATH, which dissolved in 2001 following the passing of the group’s founder and frontman, Chuck Schuldiner. The backbone of Death To All is singer/guitarist Max Phelps (Exist, Cynic), drummer Gene Hoglan (Dark Angel, Testament, Dethklok), bass beast Steve DiGiorgio (Testament, Sadus), and Bobby Koelble (DEATH).

San Francisco Thrash Metal legends Testament has one of the best performances I had ever seen them give in years. Connecticuts’ own Hatebreed ignited the ballroom with numerous mosh pits throughout their set. Continue reading
