MASTER

Bio:
Master Master is one of the true pioneers of death metal. Formed in Chicago in 1983 by bassist, vocalist and songwriter Paul Speckmann, the band helped shape the raw, aggressive sound of extreme metal in its formative years. After establishing a cult following through the underground tape-trading scene, Master released its self-titled debut in 1990 and went on to build a formidable discography spanning more than four decades.
Speckmann remains the band’s driving force, delivering a trademark combination of old-school death metal, thrash, punk attitude and relentless riffing. Since relocating to the Czech Republic, Master has continued to tour and release new music without compromising its uncompromising approach.
The band’s latest full-length, Saints Dispelled, arrived in 2024, followed by the 40th-anniversary EP 40 Years and Killing in 2025. With Paul Speckmann, guitarist Aleš Nejezchleba and drummer Peter Bajči, Master remains a living piece of death metal history—and is still delivering its brutal, no-frills attack on stages around the world.
