Death Rite

About Me


If you would like to contact DEATHRITE here's our aim. Masta Bay-lah- CausaMortisXx26 and Power Jacker- IXITheWolfIXI.
Death Rite formed in 2005 when Frank (Power Jacker) Giglio met Dan (Masta Bay-Lah) Mozine. The two friends often discussed their love for extreme metal. Through several serious discussions as well as some joking around, the two decided to form a new type of metal. Frank wrote a couple of songs worth of lyrics which dealt with actual situations that he and Dan had found themselves in while at work. With this, Grocery Metal was formed. Frank believes that the formation of this sub-genre may eventually bring performers and fans of black metal as well as those of other extreme metals closer together. Despite this belief, Frank insists that Death Rite has no intentions of starting or becoming involved in a 'movement.' "We're just fans of extreme metal writing songs about our job. We love black metal, we love death metal, we love doom...But we're none of those. We're grocery metal. We combine the elements of everything we like and top it off with an original lyrical theme." Frank told an interviewer during an interview that took place in the woods of Ocean Gate. "If we make any point at all," Frank continued, "We'd actually like people to see some of the corruption that goes on in the world of grocery workers. Many inferiors see a stock clerk and assume their job is simple. We, however, know through experience that the truth is 7 layers deeper than what the outsiders can see. In the many control centers of this inferior Hell (Any doors that read 'Employees Only' actually lead there...), an attrocious world of abuse and insanity exists. Unworthy leaders who try too hard to achieve the greatness of Satan himself go by the codename 'managers' to retard suspicion of the outsiders. Me and Dan, however, have a duty from the real Devil to reveal the truth. THESE MAJOR CORPORATIONS SHALL FALL AND FADE INTO A WORLD OF FORGOTTENNESS AND THEN ONLY SHALL THE TRUE SATAN BE LEFT STANDING!"
After several minutes of a creepy laughter, Frank had explained to us that the due time for a daily sacrifice ritual was rapidly approaching. He also explained that Dan was already preparing, and was unable to speak. He insisted several times that he was definitely NOT sleeping and insisted that they are both nocturnal.
Despite human sacrifices and suspicious, peculiar actions, Frank and Dan are all-around normal people. They hope to someday find a guitarist (Not necessarily from the unfortunate world of grocery) and tour Europe (Scanadanavia in particular, to 'revisit the land of their ancestors'). Until then, they shall continue to obliterate the atmosphere of Dan's garage with their supposed controversial and undoubted br00tal, nekr0, kvlt muzick.
