Musical compositions by contemporary composers integrate melody and lighting. The appearance of the performers is added to this cocktail. Long hair, shiny clothes, and tattooed skin. Mitch Lucker was a crowd favorite.
Passionate about music
Few know how young people live in the United States. Although it can be said that young people, regardless of where they live, share many common features and habits. Mitch Lucker was born on October 20, 1984 in an ordinary family. Parents lived in a small town in the state of California. The boy's older brother was already growing up in the family. As a child, Mitch always looked up to his brother, and tried to imitate him. This was expressed in the manner of behaving among peers, and in clothes, and even in food.
In the early years of college, the boy learned to play chords on the guitar. The elder brother, a talented performer and composer, created his own musical group. And at first he took the younger as a bass player. Mitch was good at playing in the youth team. After two years of practice, the guitarist decided to get creative on his own. In 2002, together with a school friend, he founded the Suicide Silence group. Translated into Russian, this means "suicidal silence."
The thrill of creation
Beginning musicians got down to work sparing no time and effort. Vocal and instrumental compositions were created around the clock. Often the guys spent the night in a recording studio. To make money, we performed at various venues. And then they sat down again and recorded the next track on the album. The creation of such songs is always a collective process. Each participant had their own area of responsibility. One writes the lyrics, the other writes the melody, and the result is a product that is written to disk.
Their debut album, The Cleansing, was released in 2007. A week later, the group became famous. In seven days, more than seven thousand copies were sold. Inspired by their success, the musicians began to make long-term plans. It is important to note that many of the lyrics were anti-religious. Mitch was told about this by acquaintances and completely strangers. And he heeded these remarks and exhortations.
Personal life score
Not all music connoisseurs have an idea of how professional musicians live. Many people think that half of the time they use drugs and alcohol, and the other half they spend on stage or in a recording studio. In part, this opinion is true. Mitch Lucker did not recognize halftones. He could only distinguish between white and black. Although the tattoos on his body were colored.
With a busy work schedule, Mitch managed to arrange his personal life. He dated a girl for a long time. But he decided to consolidate the marital relationship only after the birth of his daughter. The husband and wife lived without serious scandals. The atmosphere of love and respect reigned in the house. A tragic accident broke the thin thread of well-being. Mitch Lucker died on the track after losing control of his motorcycle. This happened on October 31, 2012.
