Obscure Metal: Ded Engine
Friday, May 24, 2024 at 12:01AM Want some obscure 80s metal? Well here you go! I give to you... Ded Engine! The band released its self-titled debut in 1985.
According to the band's website (a historical record basically), Ded Engine was in Metal Edge and Circus magazines. There's even an article from the Nashville Metro Times on the site which is pretty cool to see.
Ded Engine released a second album called Hold A Grudge in 1987. Have a listen:
Want to go back in time to the late-80s and watch a young band perform? Here's footage of Ded Engine playing live in Lansing, Michigan. George Lorimer, drummer for Ded Engine, posted the clip to YouTube with the comment:
"My band 'Ded Engine' from 1989 performing the song 'Rabid' live from the Lansing Civic Center in Lansing Michigan! This video was filmed and assembled in 1989 by amateur filmmaker 'Doc' Holloway, and I've recently unearthed it from the 'Book of the Ded' archives and posted it here! Live Ded Engine footage is extremely rare (I should know, being the drummer and all) - enjoy!"
