Control Denied was a band formed by Chuck Schuldiner to create progressive heavy metal, mixed with elements of power and death metal (recognizable in his earlier band Death). The band started in 1996 as Schuldiner wanted to procure a more melodic style than was possible with Death. The project was interrupted by Death's release The Sound of Perseverance in 1998, but finally the debut album The Fragile Art of Existence was released in 1999. A second album, tentatively titled When Machine and Man Collide, was partly recorded, but the death of Schuldiner in 2001 put the recordings on hold. Remaining band members have expressed a wish to complete and release the material.

However, there existed a longstanding legal dispute over the rights of the material with Karmageddon Media, further postponing the completion and release of the album. Part of these incomplete recordings were released without authorization in the Zero Tolerance two-part bootlegs of Chuck's B-sides and unreleased tracks. However, Schuldiner Estate lawyer Eric Greif settled all matters with the label by December 2009, allowing for the possibility of completing the album.

It was recently posted that the 2nd unreleased Control Denied album will soon be released. "This is an important project not only to the fans who have been waiting years for all of the 'red tape' to disintegrate, but also for Chuck's long time close friend & drummer, Richard Christy and other band members, Chuck's family and the entire international metal music community." On December 4, 2010 vocalist Tim Aymar released a statement saying that plans are being made to record and release the album by 2011, stating that Jim Morris of Morrisound Studios (with whom Chuck Schuldiner recorded multiple albums during his career) had been in contact with Greif to begin planning and booking studio time to record the remaining parts of When Man and Machine Collide.

The Fragile Art of Existence was reissued in November 2010 by Relapse Records in a 2-disc standard format, with one hour of bonus material, and a 3-disc deluxe version, with two hours of bonus material.

Control Denied Video

Line Up: Chuck Schuldiner (Guitar) Shannon Hamm (Guitar) Tim Aymar (Vocals) Richard Christy (Drums) Steve DiGiorgio (Bass) All of the pictures from Altamonte Springs in 1996 are of the original Control Denied lineup before there was a confirmed singer. They were taken at Chuck's house/home studio/rehearsal room, etc. They rehearsed there from early 1996 through mid-late 1997. Then we started rehearsing in downtown Orlando with Richard as Death, working on Perseverance and material from past records. On December 13, 2001 Chuck passed away after a struggle of 2,5 years. The band members are determined for the future to finish the second Control Denied album. 'When Man And Machine Collide'.

His skills were honed while living in a storage garage over a period of years in Florida. Since there were no neighbors to bother, Christy could practice his drumming well into the night without the worry of someone calling the police. Christy has played in many bands, including Iced Earth, Burning Inside, Death and Control Denied. Christy joined Death after meeting Chuck Schuldiner in a bookstore while the band was looking for a new drummer after the departure of Gene Hoglan. Christy recorded three albums with Death (The Sound of Perseverance released in 1998, Live in LA (Death & Raw), 2001, and Live in Eindhoven, also 2001) and one album with Control Denied, The Fragile Art of Existence released in 1999. Some of his former bandmates have been interviewed by Howard 100 News where they understood his move to comedy, saying that his unusual sense of humor and antics kept them entertained while on tour.

Director: Doug Cook Producer: Eric Greif www.myspace.com www.facebook.com www.Relapse.com http www.Facebook.com Lyrics: I saw you, you saw me, you hid your fangs so well I should have known better but it is hard to tell In beauty the evil is waiting for possession Deep inside reflections just a glimpse away Your faithful servents, they bow to you Together they're breaking the broken We were set free, what is to be? When its all said and done what is left to really say? To be one turns to none now we are just yesterday You speak in killing words, the kind that crush and kill No mercy your pleasure to taste the blood you bled The chase has ended in denial of glory To trap and add to your servant souls

6.30 min. | 4.98 user rating		 This is the first track off of Karmageddon Media/Hammerheart's compilation album Zero Tolerance. This is one of the four demos that, when completed, were to be on Control Denied's second album, When Machine And Man Collide. Featuring Chuck Schuldiner on guitars and Richard Christy on drums. Sorry, I can't figure out why YouTube makes the sound quality worse than it already is. Whatever you do, DON'T BUY ZERO TOLERANCE. No one in the band makes any sort of money off that example of corporate greed. It's better to download them instead. Posted with Eric Greif's permission. Subject to removal at any time. UPDATE 8/20/10: I have a near complete Guitar Pro tab for this track. There's no drums, but all guitars are as accurate as I can possibly get them. You can either PM me for the tab, or simply go to www.ultimate-guitar.com and search under Control Denied for the tab. It's titled "Track 1". If you would like to play along to this track, visit my profile for the pitch-shifted version of this song.
