Thanks to Death (Official) for sharing our article; "Godfather of Death Metal Chuck Schuldiner - His Legacy, Illness, and Final Years"

You can read here; https://metalheadcommunity.com/godfather-of-death-metal-chuck-schuldiners-legacy-illness-and-death/

Really dug this straight forward description of Chuck I stumbled upon from a 2020 article.

“He did not have the most docile personality or the easiest genius to carry, precisely because of his constant search for musical perfection. He was one of the most prolific composers of metal and an innovator within it. Charles Michael Schuldiner, better known as 'Chuck', was – like the band Possessed – one of the heroes of death metal, creator of hundreds of melodies that gave life to this subgenre and later broke with the schemes of it, taking it to a more technical and elaborate path, although a little lonely.”
