歷史發展

1988年，Mark Slaughter 與 Dana Strum（bass）召集了他們的兩個朋友 Tim Kelly（guitars）和 Bals Elias（drums）共同組建了 Slaughter 樂隊，樂隊成立不久就幸運的被 EMI 旗下的 Chrysalis 公司看中Slaughter(10張)，簽下契約。1990年 Slaughter 推出首張專輯《Stick it to Ya》，專輯推出僅僅三個月就賣出了白金數字，最終的銷量則超過三白金。巡演過後，樂隊推出收有五首歌的現場EP《Stick it to Live》，這張EP銷量很快突破50萬張。不久，極具聲望的美國音樂獎賦予 Slaughter“最佳新重金屬樂隊”的稱號，樂隊的一系列成功令人羨慕不已。1992年，Slaughter 推出第二張專輯《Wild Life》，這次 Slaughter 將重金屬玩得更為火爆，並通過多種樂器和效果來豐富他們的音樂，儘管《Wild Life》一經推出就打上 Billboard 專輯榜第8位，但專輯的最終的銷量卻並不令人滿意。接下來則是一大堆煩惱困擾著樂隊：先是 Tim Kelly 和樂隊的巡演經濟人因涉嫌吸毒而染上官司；然後 Dana Strum 因騎車摔傷手臂而無法彈奏樂器；最麻煩的則是樂隊因佣金問題與 Chrysalis 公司陷入曠日持久的官司之中，樂隊的新專輯也因此遲遲未能推出。當然最後這一切都是雨過天晴，而 CMC 公司的介入使得樂隊得以發行專輯新專輯《Fear No Evil》。1995年的專輯《Fear No Evil》是 Slaughter 最出色的一張專輯。同年，樂隊在 JVC 機構下推出收有5首歌的EP《Hard Time》。舊公司 Chrysalis 則推出他們的精選專輯《Mass Slaughter/The best of Slaughter》。隨後 Slaughter 開始了第一次日本巡演，並獲得巨大成功。1997年，樂隊推出第四專輯《Revolution》，Slaughter 依然堅持著為自己帶來巨大成功和失敗的流行重金屬風格，而且非常純粹，畢竟1997年已很難聽到這樣的專輯了，只是樂評認為《Revolution》較上張出色的《Fear No Evil》水準有所下降。1998年，樂隊推出一張現場+老歌的唱片專輯《Eternal Live》。即使在重金屬最低落的時期，Slaughter 仍然以頻繁的活動來顯示對自己未來的信心。但不久後最大的災禍降臨 Slaughter，吉他手 Tim Kelly 在1999年的一次車禍中喪生，這對樂隊打擊很大，畢竟多年來經歷風風雨雨，樂隊的陣容從未改變過。好在 Slaughter 很快從悲痛中挺過來，新吉他手Jeff Blando 在幾個月後加入樂隊，Jeff Blando 的表現不錯，樂迷們對他也非常支持，新陣容的 Slaughter 實力依然不減。樂隊演出圖片(17張)1999年，Slaughter 推出第五張錄音室專輯《Back to Reality》，樂隊風格依然未有太大的變化，專輯的銷量同以前一樣，顯得不慍不火，但樂隊對自己的未來充滿了信心，因為始終有一批鐵桿樂迷在支持著他們，已經很難聽到一張純粹的流行重金屬專輯了，Slaughter 的確是很好的選擇。
