A.k.a. Samhain (10)

A West-German Thrash Metal band from Düsseldorf formed in 1984 by vocalist/bassist Milo Van Jaksic, guitarists Thomas Priebe and Sven Flügge and drummer Markus Hahn. They started as Samhain. They would soon sign with Noise Records and almost instantly meet with some welcome press-generating controversy when their first album Riders Of Doom had to be renamed Satan's Gift in order to avoid censure by the easily offended American market. European touring with Possessed and Voivod followed as did another thrashing opus named Raging Steel in 1987. But with the arrival of new talented guitarist Uwe Osterlehner to replace Thomas Priebe the band shifted toward a more intricate, Progressive Metal style for their third and fourth releases Deception Ignored (1988) and Life Beyond (1992). Neither of these managed to increase Deathrow's tiny fan base, however, and the group quietly disbanded a short time later. Osterlehner went on to front progressive thrashers End Amen.
