Since Death’s Chuck Schuldiner passed away in 2001 from a brain tumor, the metal band have raged on his honor, along with many tribute bands doing the same. Yesterday, though, the group came across a ’90s Madonna cover featuring the late vocalist and guitarist.
“Found this today going through some things,” the caption on the official Death Facebook page reads. “Chuck recorded this in the early stages of his battle with cancer, I remember it well. Chuck sitting in his bedroom with his stealth and a drum machine. I’m not sure how many people outside of the family and a few friends have heard this but it’s all yours. Chuck’s version of Madonna’s 1998 single ‘Frozen.'”
The track comes from Ray Of Light, and the goup definitely took creative liberty with their rendition, doubling its three-minute running time and using it to shred on animated guitars. Watch the surprisingly high quality video of the song playing in a car here.
