WHAT KILLED SLAM? Devourment, Suffocation, Ingested

What killed slam? Although slam is arguably more popular than ever, to me it died when it became something very different from its origins.

The birth of slam, from "Liege Of Inveracity" by Suffocation

Proto-slam bands like Internal Bleeding, Pyrexia and other NYDM bands as well as Disgorge and Dying Fetus

The birth of "true slam" with Repudilation, Deprecated and Devourment, who's 1.3.8 album became the template for modern slam

The golden years with bands like Disconformity, Defeated Sanity, Cephalotripsy, Katalepsy and Cerebral Incubation

The demise of slam, as it became more like slamcore / deathcore / beatdown / death metal etc with bands like Ingested, Extermination Dismemberment and Vulvodynia leading the way
