This is a tribute to Chuck Schuldiner, Tim Aymar, and Control Denied

Shortly following Chuck Schuldiner's diagnosis of brain cancer in 1999, he began writing a new album with Richard Christy, Shannon Hamm, Steve DiGiorgio, and Tim Aymar. The album, tentatively titled "When Man and Machine Collide," would have been the follow-up album to Control Denied's influential record, "The Fragile Art of Existence." Due to the passing of Chuck and the technical limitations of the recording equipment he used, the record was never completed. Apart from four demo tracks that were leaked in 2004 and a few handwritten sheets of incomplete lyrics, no material was released.

After being fascinated by these demos and lyrical fragments for nearly two decades, Darick and his collaborators attempted a faithful reimagining of the four leaked songs. The group recreated what was released from the tracks, following note-for-note and beat-for-beat everything that was included in the demos. The group also looked to the original members' styles and past recordings to breathe life into the songs, including original vocal melodies, additional solos, and harmonies inspired by the members of Control Denied.

Nothing will ever compare to what would have been created and performed by the original members of Control Denied. This recording is not a replacement, but a tribute to what could have been.
