- Black_Death_(American_band) abstract "Black Death is an American band from Cleveland, Ohio, who have been noted as the "first all-African-American heavy metal band." The group were also mentioned in Ian Christe's book Sound of the Beast: The Complete Headbanging History of Heavy Metal., and mentioned Rock 'n' roll and the Cleveland connection by Deanna R. Adams as "one of the only, if not the only, all-black metal bands in the country" in 1987. Black Death was a nameless band in 1977 consisting of Greg Hicks, Phil Bullard, and Clayborn Pinkins. In 1978 they recruited Henry Marshall on lead guitar and lead vocals. The name Black Death was coined by Hicks, Bullard, and Pinkins in 1979 taken from Richard Pryor who had a comedy skit featuring a band called Black Death that killed their audience while performing. That year, Pinkins was shot and killed. Soon after, Ed Goodan took over on bass, only to be replaced a year later by Darrel Harris.The first recording was of one song called "Outcast" in 1980, which aired on Bob "Surge" Surgent's local college radio show. The response from that song generated interest from Bob Surgent to put the band in the studio. The second recording was in 1981 at Angel Studios and to date has never been released. The third was a demo recorded at Suma studios in 1982. Two songs were featured on "Cleveland Metal Compilation". The fourth recording was Black Death's debut LP, released by Auburn Records in Cleveland, with only 2,000 copies printed.In 2008, original Black Death drummer Phil Bullard died from cancer. In 2009, a new version of the band was reformed by original guitarist Greg Hicks. This lineup claims to have done so in order to pay tribute to Bullard. It has however created some confusion as many fans have assumed that Spacek is part of the reformation. The new incarnation of Black Death is reportedly working on material for a new album in the future. In 2010 former guitarist/vocalist Siki Spacek formed an act called "Siki Spacek & The Resurrection". As of 2013 Spacek is performing with a group under the name "Iron Messiah", as a reference to the Black Death song "Scream of the Iron Messiah".".
