The Old Dead Tree was a Progressive death metal band from the city of Paris, France active between 1997 and 2009.

Musical style

Their musical style is a mixture of death metal elements, such as double bass drumming and heavy guitar riffing, and more mellow, progressive, gothic metal and doom metal elements. Singer Manuel Munoz varies between harsh growls and a melodic tenor voice.

Albums

Their first major album release in 2003 was entitled The Nameless Disease and was inspired by and centered around the suicide of the band's first drummer, Frédéric Guillemot.[1]

Their second album The Perpetual Motion was released in 2005.

Their latest record to date is The Water Fields which was released in September 2007. It received critical acclaim.

A new album was tentatively scheduled to be recorded in Fall 2009, but creative differences caused the band to break up before it could be finished.[2]
