The Black Dahlia Murder - Servitude

With the tragic passing of TBDM’s frontman and co-founder Trevor Strnad in 2022, Eschbach, bassist Max Lavelle, drummer Alan Cassidy and producer/guitarist Brandon Ellis were faced with a decision: Close the door on one of the most beloved death metal bands of the last 20 years, or carry on in their fallen brother’s charismatic spirit?  After a period of profound grief and deep soul-searching, Eschbach moved from guitar to vocals, setting aside his lifelong identity as a live guitarist for the survival of the band. Former TBDM member Ryan Knight returned to the fold to take Eschbach’s place on guitar. The new lineup made their debut in TBDM’s hometown of Detroit in late October 2022 for a tribute show for Strnad. Fast forward to right about now: The Black Dahlia Murder’s new album is the one that many would have thought impossible. 'Servitude', the band’s tenth full-length, marks Eschbach’s recorded debut as TBDM’s lead vocalist and lyricist—and their first with Knight on guitar since 2015’s 'Abysmal'.
